I've never had much interest in flipping - prefer buy & holds... but I see people losing money left and right due to the fact that they just have cash and want to jump in.

Single and small multi both have their merits- i prefer small multi :)Also, here's a section of a post I just made on another thread about a more detailed method of cap-ex calculation:Truly, the best method for the over analytical, is to segregate the cost of replacement vs. remaining lifespan of each component of the property & find out how much need be budgeted yearly until replacement of that component comes due.

Personally I have an offer on the table as we speak for 4.41% 5 year ballon commercial loan LMK if you want further details - Yes LLC - yes personal guarantees / New construction so I'm doing 20 year amort Lender will allow 25 just my preference.

Few of them go for Section 8 and some prefer regular tenants.You have to get certificate of occupancy and renewals for landlord to comply with city regulations.Based on the quality of finish and pars of Inkster; the rents can be varying.

Preferably one with experience with STRs, but at the very least one who understands real estate investing.

I have clients prefer that sometimes.

Said it made it soft to step on.Strange, or something that people prefer?

Preferred strategy: BRRRR.

Preferably a CCIM.  

I prefer to control this aspect.
