Balancing speed with quality is key to maximizing profitability.

Today, I wanted to chat about something that's been a major topic of discussion in our industry—the recent NAR settlement and its potential impacts on real estate agents.For those who might not be fully up to speed, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) recently reached a proposed settlement agreement related to broker commissions.

I bought it at the peak of the market. 

I am making progress, but not at the speed that I would like.

We have one right now finishing up, high end small custom> 95% return cash on cash, bought land retail 2.5yrs ago (peak). $1.7M costs, $2.25M completed value.

for individual room rentals  I don't think work from home is big and for multiple room rentals I might try to avoid it but gamers loved having a desk too and decent internet speed.

I hope you have a small war chest to get these homes up-to-speed. 

Leasing a Maytag laundry center from Wash.com would cost me $100/mo, but reviewers say they can take weeks to come out for repairs.A local place called Mission Laundry Equipment can lease me a Speed Queen laundry center for $110/mo, or sell it to me for $4,299 (actually $5,450 with all taxes and fees for delivery, installation, and setting up the credit card system).

This is particularly important in competitive markets where speed can be a key factor.Risk Management: While there is certainly risk with any form of financing, careful management and choosing the right lender can mitigate these risks.

If your focus is on speed, (e.g. because the seller dosn´t want to wait or give a financing contingency) you might consider a hard/private money loan, since they usually can close way faster than a conventional bank loan.
