@Ryan Rubel There are certainly quite a few restrictions in those two areas, in Carlsbad you have to be within the coastal Zone...I have a multifamily in Carlsbad Village a block outside of the coastal zone so I'm unable to operate it as an STR unfortunately.

Expenses will level off: Multifamily operators have been plagued by expense increases in the form of taxes and insurance, for the last few years, especially in the south, and especially in Florida and Texas.

Other risks, the contractor walking off the job, a storm hitting and delaying the project for weeks, someone breaking into the home and stealing stuff (which happened just the other day to a client of mine), a squatter, or drunk driver driving into the house (happened a lot at my old job as a firefighter lol).

Servicers have merged and operate on thin margins.Refinancing with a credit union or bank doesn't solve the problem.

There are more passive ways to invest in real estate than "turn-key" real estate and achieve those types of returns, but you will need vet the operators and get educated before jumping in.

There needs to be someone similar to Always Marco on Youtube with the MLMs where you have someone exposing gurus who sell ******** courses.If you want to legitimately learn wholesaling, stop wasting money on ******** courses, and pay for such things as hiring an attorney to properly set up contracts, hire people to do inspections and appraisals, and hire CPAs to make sure that your business operates properly.

Through your local bank that you are using, are you reapplying for each new home for a seperate construction loan or are you setup as a credit line with them and just submit a new budget for each new home 7 mil credit line  ... new budget for each plan that has been pre appraised in the MAI at the beginning of the project.. they did have to update the Mai last summer but again did it at their cost not mine.. banks have to paper their files.. even though we are selling the same floor plans for 100k more per plan than the original numbers came it at and bank has been paid and has all the closing statements showing this data..

Let them build through hard work like teaming with reputable operator who may take a cut but own the project etc.Neal Bawa and associated companies are another bunch or lier’s who project rosy picture to sign up people but fial to deliver.Those two have made my experience with real estate very companies very negative.

A friend of mine invested in one last year—apartments upstairs, a small coffee shop downstairs - and the combination of income streams made it a steady performer.Scaling with a 1031 Exchange:While not applicable unless you sell a property, planning for a 1031 exchange could help you scale quickly while avoiding capital gains taxes.
