For instance, one investor I worked with used it to jump from a duplex to a 4-unit building in Phoenix, effectively doubling their rental income as well as the forecasted appreciation rate on their new property.

But today, with housing prices doubled (or more) since then, it is tougher - especially when you factor in higher interest rates as well.  

Starting a property management company with my brother and my dad was a mix of teamwork, trust, and family dinners doubling as business meetings.

He abandoned trying to scale.Learning from this experience when my partner and I decided we wanted to double our net income, we realized it would take a increase of 2 1/2 time our volume and probably need to triple our deal flow.  

Fund of fund raisers need to do a much better job including descriptions of both double promotes and possible implications for LPs investing through a fund of fund vs directly.

Instead of trying to actively manage investments in singles and doubles have you considered investing passively in syndications?

I bought a Class A (nice Indy suburban home with excellent schools) in 2013 and it's appreciated (doubled in value from 2013 to 2021) and I'm positive cash flow because of my low interest rate, 3.875%.

  $36k - $16k = $20k or $1,600 per month net income left to cover all other expenses...same as above.Median household income in the US is over $80k or more than double these two zip codes.

@Robby SanchezBridge loans are short term and if they default or mature in many instances the interest rate doubles - so make sure you have a very solid exit planI see many get a bridge loan and realize they don’t have the 25% equity in the deal to refinance to another loan and end up getting wiped or foreclosed on because they never researched what they needed to be at on the back end when they were refinancing.
