The other picture (with the green boxes) is the return for possible scenarios - MTR, STR, LTR - but all have negative cashflow.

@Max KulishovGreat way to put it, @Jonathan Greene.

I'm too green to share anything about Note.

You can't just reshape arborvitae or leland cypress by carving it up; anything back beyond green won't regrow.

Hi Bracken,I would highly recommend reading David Greene's Long Distance Real-Estate Investing if you havent done so.

Quote from @Jaycee Greene: Hey @Nickolas Lipinski.

@Jonathan Greene, that sucks.

I've even heard of GCs using auction type settings for returned items at Home Depot and Lowes for steep discounts.I've learned a lot about the GC game as I was up close to over 40 projects last two years and some went well and some did not and when they did not it was all Contractor related.If a GC isn't sourcing cheap materials at the same time milking the hell out of his 150-200 per day workers, then you can find yourself eating into your margins real fast. 

I was in a similar spot with a high paying W2 when I first started investing in real estate.I took the principles from BRRRR and Long Distance Real Estate Investing from David Greene's books and went at it.

Quote from @Deborah Wodell:  Agree with what @Jonathan Greene said above.
