Hi there,ISSUE: A tenant informed me she is responsible for cracking my glass top range and wants to know next steps for getting it repaired.

Plan to live there for 1.5 years, force appreciation, then BRRRR it into a 4plex (stack method).

Used Brandons 4 square method What was the outcome?

A plan should be a series of steps with each step having an entrance and exit...and I'm referring to your money here. 

I have spent a lot of time reading through guides like Brandon Turner's How to Estimate Future CapEx Expenses on a Rental Property and How to Buy a Small MultiFamily Property: A Step by Step Case Study, which have been incredibly helpful. 

My premise was to step back from the word "speculative" and the phrase "hoping for market appreciation" because that's not the intent or motive.  

That all being said, I'm taking everything one step at a time and focusing on the current obstacles at hand. 

I’ve been given advice to ‘keep buying’...
My fist property will be working well with a cap of 7.7.

ITs an Attractive idea, To pay it off, and Then leverage it.
But I hear, I should continue Buying.

Any Arguments, E...

I think understanding what she could get for it now vs. if she fixed some things would be the first step in helping her make an educated decision on what to do to get her out of this situation.
