If you can swing that and you can find a duplex or 3-4 unit that cash flows.

Cash flow is very tight.

Road entrances, parking ratio, traffic flow should have been one of the first steps prior to finalizing anything on the project. 

The second is an 8 unit and cash flow and management were too poor starting out to finance it.

It's much harder than most new investors realize to find properties that actually cash flow well.

If you're not learning/the conversation isn't flowing move around and meet someone new.You can find REIAs here and on Facebook. 

So how many of you out there have used leverage, maybe conservatively, to increase you net worth and cash flow with real estate?

I personally like to buy real estate that has A) excellent long-term prospects ie. area growth, commercial vibrancy, high housing demand, rising rental rates and B) positive or at least neutral cash flow.

@Ian DaviesI would go check out Perry Zheng's platform Cash Flow PortalGino

I think some of the newer construction is sitting well above current market value and could be in jeopardy if the market adjusts or the economy continues to fluctuate with inflation.Depending on where you live and what your comfort level is there are several other states that can offer a better cash flow for a similar price range.
