I'm gearing up to use the BRRRR strategy (out of state investing) and start my real estate empire (insert maniacal laugh here) by buying in class C to C+ neighborhoods.

Hi @Hunter Broschinsky It depends on a lot of factors including location, price point, type of property, condition, etc...I have a couple of deals in escrow in Oceanside San Diego and can give you an idea of what those look like, one is a 4plex on the water and the other is a duplex inland oceanside...both different different properties and buyer profiles....you are likely to be at a higher price point and higher appreciation in coastal oceanside vs inland in say Escondido area where you will have better cashflow at a lower price point but not as high in appreciation.

You may have to work for free or at low cost to the small company, as they will be very sensitive to cash flow and costs.The development business is one of the most complicated businesses that I know of combined with risk in land markets, underwriting, financing, and construction.

I just bought a duplex in land contract with no money down as a buy and hold.

That get mentioned on here sometimes (6th mailing), but is there any empirical or otherwise, data on this?

If your current "empire" is cover your current and future expenses with a large buffer no need to change.

If dealing with a broken toilet or two, or hearing some footsteps above my head are the small challenges I have to deal with to climb to the top of an everlasting empire, then I'll put some gloves on, and sleep with ear plugs in if I have to. 

Florida is very hot and muggy, especially the inland.

It is part of the British empire and not an independent country; the governor is appointed by the Queen of England.

If I think about this too hard I imagine myself holding up a mirror to a mirror where my eyes are rolling into the back of my head like a pathogenic animal and I'm trapped inside infinite regress...I love landlording and want to build a rental empire that includes retirement income alongside a way to revitalize my neighborhood.
