In the long run, I want to have properties that are producing strong cash flow (eventually would love to own small apartment buildings and syndicate larger deals), but it seems that focusing on cash flow and reinvesting those cash flows will be a slower process than focusing on properties prime for appreciation or with opportunities for forced appreciation.

Small-Scale Testing:If you're uncertain about diving into a larger project, you might want to test them with a smaller loan to see how they handle the process.

I know that you do a great job smoothing out any "rough spots" in the lending process, so that certainly helps when the deal starts to go sideways... 

In fact, I would estimate that it is mostly upper middle-class folks that have the money and wherewithal to go through the vacation rental process - prepayment of substantial monies, etc.If you only have one property, I would just stick with Venmo, CashApp, or Paypal.

I am currently in the process of identifying land for a purpose-built residential assisted living and memory care facility in Houston, TX.

The Initial Filing:Any existing business not excluded must begin to file in 2024 via the FinCen network filing process.

People have to remember that the seller finance space fills the gaps that the banks leave behind. 

I'm still in the process of growing my portfolio, but have heard others 1031 all their smaller properties into a larger building and have a property management company manage, OR, set up a seller financing deal with another buyer that gives you the cash flow you desire. 

Alot of unknowns as you don't have the ability to walk the property beforehand, but interesting process, and pretty good deals exist there.While the Trustee Sales are cash purchases, there are many hard money options that can turn over the funds in time for the 24 hour funding required to complete the purchase.If you are interested, let me know and I can go into more detail, as well as make some other suggestions for you to consider. 

.- Review the loan documents, there is most likely a due on sale clause, which is why you won't find a title company to process these for you.
