@Michael Daniel - I'm experimenting with a few "AI" generated sources/lists now and my initial perspective is that they're another source of deal flow, but not much better conversion than other areas including wholesalers, MLS, etc...

Both were back when I had a proliferation of 0% balance for 18/24 & 0% transaction fee, and both checks generated a phone call from the credit companies (Bank of America and CitiBank) to ensure they were legitimate.

So if it can do that, shouldn't it be able to be pointed to any website of your choice, search through groups/posts/etc and communicate with anyone who displays some kind of "intent" to sell, and if no intent is found, it could generate "curiousity" and help develop some curiousity from anyone in the group, and it could do this, until all possible efforts have been exhausted over time. 

You need a huge amount (of stabilized) real estate to generate the same cash flow as your W2.

It currently seems I’m not going to be coming back to the states anytime soon (given the upcoming projects within the next 3-4 years) but would really appreciate any advice on investment rental property strategy as so to start building the foundation for generational wealth/passive income.We have saved a substantial amount of money  for which the original intent was to buy our future primary residence with all cash if/when we moved back to the states.However, that’s not what’s going to build generational wealth and would rather put that money into passive income investments hence, real estate rental properties.

You may have to pay an agent to make all these lowball offers, otherwise they may get tired of you wasting their time.3) What can you do to your current house to generate cashflow now or more in the future:- Finish the basement as a separate unit? 

So if you had electric included but there was a black out, would you refund here for getting a generator?

What are some creative revenue generating strategies that you all have explored?

If you're an LP that meets the requirements for REPS, but you're not materially participating, losses generated from bonus depreciation is unlikely to help you offset non-passive income. 

Yeah, were freaking morons for expecting anything different to have resulted from raising a generation of human cat's......
