For many, the bottleneck to acquiring several buy/hold properties for cashflow is simply the lack of available funds.Fix and Flips find their way into most investors strategies because it allows the purchase of buy and holds at a greater rate.

At some point "deals" or human capital become the bottle neck.

Ideas range from automation, full applications, search tools, tracking tools, etc.It would be great to hear others experiences, concerns, and bottlenecks.

Congestion is clearly the key bottleneck, do you sense City leadership feels the urgency, or has planning on that beyond roads/hwys?

This is not the first time I've listened to a guy named "Ari" tell me he could sell me a foolproof system for making me money, and every other time in that far-off land where "Ari" is a very common name it was not 2 Legit 2 Quit, no, no, no, filoi kai aderfia, not by a long shot.In any case, the biggest problem, the bottleneck that keeps us from scaling up our ghetto BRRRRing quickly, isn't the cost of borrowed money to keep up with deal flow, it's the lack of affordable competent renovation tradesmen to plan, manage, and carry out the renovating.

I guess figuring that out is key.It is my belief that finding deals is my biggest bottleneck. 

The other great thing about those areas is that labor costs run high and regulatory climates are severe, bottlenecking development of new apartments and giving a unique value proposition to single families for rental conversion.

Now that we've had guests come in and out and the property is doing well on the systems I've created, I'm wondering when the bottleneck is going to happen. 

Keep in mind, you do risk the approval process becoming a bottleneck.

@Joe Fairless I went in knowing only of rental income and flipping houses as revenue streams and feeling pessimistic, knowing I'd only be bottle-necked by insufficient funds to acquire properties.
