It seems like I need to check further away from the DMV area.My feelings are if you want “cash flow” you should buy a bond (I really like the tips rate right now) there is next to no reason to buy real estate for cash flow, if you are going to buy you should buy with appreciation in mind, which is not to say that’s the route I’d go, I’ve been liquidating properties to put in stocks and money market funds over the last few years and u just did the math and I’ve come out well ahead, but just to say there are arguments for stocks/bonds, there are arguments for levered appreciation, but the cap rates pretty much anywhere aren’t worth it vs an inflation protected bond, especially since a 3/rd of inflation is real estate anywhere, you could get “cash flow” and inflation protection much easier through a tips.

We have the drive to achieve whatever we put our mind to, the skills to create a very unique and desirable space, and the finances to back up our investment.

Nobody in their right mind is lending 90% on investment..Sell the thing or bring in cash. 80% Max LTV.

I would like to connect with like minded individuals.

I know depending on where an investor is in their fix and flip journey and the market this will vary, but Im curious because I feel like this is important when it comes to a good deal since some investors might not mind making less to have more doors. 

I know of some folks in KC and Memphis doing new builds like this, but they are doing it within a much larger and long-term project that includes upwards of 300-500 units built over the course of 5-10 years.Assuming you're looking in Columbia, do you have a "B+/C" neighborhood in mind?

Keep in mind, adding "cute", and upgrading things won't increase your rent or ARV past what the market in that area will tell you is the max. 

We told people that they should make up the minds quick with so many people interested.Afterwards we figured we maybe underpriced a bit but got it rented.

Curious as to how you keep your goals "top of mind" and track them to keep yourself accountability.

This is on my mind for maybe a 5 year plan.Mike
