Quote from @Adolfo Herrera: I recently bought a piece of land(cash) in my hometown in Texas and I am looking to start building a home to sell.The lot sits in a new neighborhood and is in the more affordable side of the Rio Grande Valley.

My main goal is to prioritize cash flow while keeping an eye on long-term appreciation.If anyone has insights on markets that might be a good fit, tips for first-time investors using home equity, or anything else I should be thinking about, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Low down payment, but you would be increasing the value of the property with your own cash.

I have run the numbers in the area and the property seems to cash flow if I charge at least $1200 per side.

Hey guys,  Im thinking of shifting my traditional checking/saving account and mortgage to a manulife one account which my broker has suggested so I can be ready to pounce on a house and properly conduct the yellow letter direct marketing offering cash when they want it. 

It is a duplex near scranton PA. the Mortgage is about $2,400 and each tenant pays $1,550 monthly in rent so I make about $700 in cash flow monthly.

Purchase price: $630,000 Cash invested: $150,000 STR - airbnb/VRBO cabin in the Smokies

I am not against LTR but would like a higher cash flow property since my wife and I are already in our early 40's.

Purchase price: $305,000 Cash invested: $25,000 Residential single family residence rental.

You can make straight Roth contributions or convert cash as you’re talking about but you can also convert assets from pre-tax to Roth.
