I am now seeing how the REI Nation process works from start to finish and as someone who also owns my own rental portfolio here in Memphis in what I consider solid neighborhoods but also used leverage to purchase, sometimes your cashflow gets evaporated due to CAPEX and there isn't always rhyme or reason to it.

When the remodel is finished I hope to already have some early appreciation on the property.

With that being said, appreciation is certainly something to always consider here in SD.Example of current property for sale, $1,800,000 asking price (25% down) - 4 units $10,200 total monthly rents (pro forma) - rental market has seen softening as of late$9,770/month after assuming 5% vacancy rate.$8,981 mortgage at 7%$2,918 expenses monthly 33.38% of Gross rental income (Prop mgt, maintenance reserve, utilities, Prop Taxes, Insurance, other)$6,852 NOI/monthly ($2,129) negative monthly cash flow..Same scenario with 50% down, $864 positive monthly cash flowNot saying it's the best use of capital or the only way to do it, instead providing an example using an available market opportunity to share what the numbers look like. 

My lot is actually only 75' wide but was grandfathered into the zoning once they made the setback changes (neighborhood is late 1950 builds). 

And once I finish the due diligence, my work is done: it's completely passive.

Clearly there's a lot more ROI and work for a BRRRR.After finishing David Greene's BRRRR book and combing the forums, my impression is it'll come down to building the right team and doing our due diligence on finding and analyzing deals, estimated ARV, rehab costs, and rent /demand for an area with the most conservative estimates. 

I've noticed lately that when selling and moving, the Realtor and contract require/request that you leave TV mounts where they are.

We just closed in late Dec so the financials are a work in progress but we’re projecting and tracking closely to a 55% expense ratio and should have about 11% CoC in year one through the renovation period as we get more renovated units online. 

In the stages of working the acquisition side of wholesaling, making cold calls since late September 2024.

Some simple valences along the top will finish out those windows nicely.
