It's helped, but we're still considering adding a hot tub to boost our revenue!

Same thing with what I am building in Charleston SC another red hot market with extremely limited inventory and no SFR goes for rental purposes.. those with funds to buy are still buying . when i built in florida starter homes that was and is a disaster.. granted I did not lose money but it was No way worth the effort time and risk.. so its market dependent. 

Again, there are many vendors out there willing to hot shot to a property for $10-$20 depending on the task needed.

Depending on repairs and updates, $40K could get you close to furnishing the home, but if you want to add profitable amenities such as a game room or hot tub, it would be more. 

With interest rates and prices skyrocketing, I believe this strategy has the potential to become a hot trend in our area.My plan is to acquire properties via seller finance or subject to, optimize it for this strategy and then repeat the process to multiply and increase income sources.
