Recently, with precious metals at 5 year lows i have embarked on a buying spree of silver and even a couple ounces of gold.

Applaud you for embarking on the CCIM and yes, sensitivity analysis is something that is very valuable I find when sharing w/our more sophisticated investors that are reviewing our deals.  

I’m about to embark on a project to build a 24’ x 10’ deck on a vacation STR in Lake Tahoe and install a hot tub on it (hot tubs raise STR income in this market by up to 10k/yr).

I have my second purchase under contract and before I embark on it I wanted to take this opportunity to document what made the first one a success and share that with those here who are interested. 

Sounds like what I'm embarking on now, minus the free rent 👏🏾👏🏾

@Justin DutchoverWelcome to the BP community, where you will find like minded individuals committed to REI and also helping others succeed.Your time on this social media site will be well spent.You have taken your 1st step by announcing your readiness and commitment to embark on a REI career.Whether you pursue, wholesale, fix and flip or buy and hold it's up to you to decide, but there are no restrictions if you want to do all of the categories mentioned.The bottom line is that you must take action to start.

A friend and I are embarking on a 16 unit building and splitting the financial burden, which is the easy part to divide up.

Account Closed Do you think college is essential for embarking on the plan I've convinced?

I have actually embarked on that and am doing exactly what you mentioned--taking components I like from all of of them.

@Tahra Wright  Yes exactly, I am planning on embarking on a information chase on this knowing that the answer is going to be custom to my personal profile.
