Not trying to be a dream killer but there is simply no money to be made in the D.C. no cash flow, no margins to flip, labor either to flip or just hold a property is insane, the money was made years ago, even going forward I see limited appreciation, investing is HARD everyone these days but to the extent there is money to be made you have to go to places that haven’t popped yet.

Looking at two potential ways to buy real estate for long term hold rental. property A assume the loan on a property with no equity at 6% interest rate.

Hey Christopher, Columbus OH would be a great fit for your buy-and-hold investment strategy.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

I would guess just based off of the info given that your best bet for wealth building is to go low down payment in NC in a great area (Im down here, if you have any questions shoot me a dm) and hold the NJ property.

That means we really have to plan to hold the property for two years before reselling. 

I don't do flips though, so your cost/benefit analysis might be different than mine as a buy/hold investor. 

I definitely would not touch the 3.75% personal mortgage and hold that forever. 

We were interested in the deal with Archie Ragland due to several factors: Quick Turnaround: Whole-tailing allows for a fast transaction with minimal holding time.

Repeat that over 5-10 years and suddenly you’re making real money.
