So, if interest rates are a buyer’s primary roadblock, then I recommend negotiating a rate buydown at a seller’s expense or looking at new construction, where builders are offering rate reductions and other substantial incentives.What if I’m a seller?

I know becoming a part time agent is one way, but where we live in south Florida seems to be overfilled with agents and I don't think its a great fit for us right now. 

For comparison purposes, I hold ownership units in a LLC that owns a retail/service center where there is a mortgage loan that initially represented 50% of value, now about 35%.  

What type of property do you plan to purchase(Single, multi, commercial, etc) and where do you plan to buy it?

Where in swfl are you exactly?

It is usually difficult to take money against it from the bank, it might not be a 1:1 value add - meaning if you invest 100k into an adu it might not raise your value by 100kThat being said, it can be pretty lucrative especially in expensive and sunny CA - since building lots are no where to be found and existing real estate returns are very poor.My partner builds these units.

That someone is going to deliver to you, on a silver platter, a property purchase you can simply say "yeah, sure, I'll take that" where you do some paint, carpet, little cleaning and tidying and turn around and clear a $100k?

@Fred Robertson, I was actually reading a little about this sort of thing today and it is absolutely the kind of thing where you get a CPA or certified financial planner involved!

I live in Fl. where insurance is pretty costly but I am also investing in states where insurance seems less expensive.
