Ever since that conversation I went on a deep dive of research and studying to figure out how to accomplish these wild ambitions of mine.She helped me get my first property when I was 24 years old, which we ended up selling after a few years and using the revenue to purchase another property.

I feel sorry for the people losing everything in the fires , insurance will go up .But I wish I was the guy  driving this bulldozer ;t=162s

These workshops are 3-hour deep dives into a specific topic with no more than 100 attendees in each workshop.The full agenda will likely be released in March at biggerpockets.com/conference and you can take a look at all content offerings then!

Quote from @Kody Smith: without getting too deep into my finances, what my strategy is...1. take loans to buy properties (leverage)2. fix/flip for day to day cash flow income3. use some of the fix/flip income to buy consistent cash flow through:- business acquisition, - commercial properties (MF and store fronts),I have no intention of doing ALL of the management myself, I will hire management as needed (medium term goal)my expected core role is money provider, evaluating the numbers, making decisions, and connecting with investors, wholesalers, lenders, contractors, and property owners.while I am just on step 2 of the journey, I am looking toward step 3 to stabilize, and not worry about if house prices drop mid project or not (or not worry as much) So to be fair this is more about obtaining and growing a real estate business not simply buying rentals for cashflow.

Since then, I've documented the process as a Boutique Hotel investor and have a deep commitment to sharing my knowledge around Boutique Hotel Investing with others who are looking for a path to financial freedom, and Boutique Hotels is the best path to get there in my personal opinion.

It's critically important to make sure you know the exact zoning in regards to minimum stay requirements before you go too deep into a property.

if there's no major rehab, it usually means you can't buy it at a deep enough discount for a BRRRR to work. 

Some old Milwaukee sewer laterals have tree roots that like catch on to stuff.We also eliminate garbage disposals during rehab and normally we have someone from our team check out issues, before we send a plumber.
