Why are you liquidating?!

Dave cool article but there  are other benefits like ability to get Loans based on the STR etc which you can use to scale up.

Our liquid net worth is around $1.1mm; we have an additional $480k in equity in our home and a piece of land we own.

Good stuff to think about, thank you Sebastian.It's cool to see extra replies from time to time on this post as I continue with the ideas.It's interesting, I looked into different DSTs and had conversations but just didn't feel comfortable with what I felt was a lack of control or ability to really know the operators and properties.I also kept running the numbers and just couldn't make 1031s into other properties make sense with the new interest rates compared to what I have now. 

Doing both flips and BRRRRs, if possible, would prevent you from locking up too much liquidity into a deal or numerous deals, thus allowing you to continue to scale.

While always having at least 6 months of expenses for each property in an emergency fund that maybe is invested in mutual funds or something liquid. 

High inflation means that people will be looking for products that can store their wealth (aka "liquidity"), such as gold, cryptocurrency, or real estate.So why buy real estate during inflation?

It sounds cool to invest with no- or low-money down, but the honest truth about seller finance and sub to is that the majority of deals that get done with low- or no-money down are by people who do have the money to do the deal.

I struggle to understand how grown men like you don’t see that; rather than coming across as “cool” or “tough,” this attitude makes you seem more like a beer-goggling college fraternity than a forum for learning and growth.

Just be sure you understand the liquidity of the HYSA because there are some banks that only allow a certain amount to be withdrawn each month.
