I actually wouldn't advise this option for a loan this small when the other 2 options are so compelling, but it popped up and is interesting to talk about.

Many have gone like the wind, new ones pop up and will also disappear with the next breeze.Selling crap properties, in crap areas for more than they are worth and then passing on to 3rd party PM that nickel and dimes to death.It's a shame but it's been the same cycle since I started in 2012 and even longer that I remember.I feel sorry for such investors that commit so these providers but I feel even sorrier for those that try DIY BRRR from out of state.Asset classes are variable and "Potato" "Potato" lolFor example, I can almost but guarantee that my B class in Toledo for $90,000 for example is D class in Cinci.Lived in Middletown and owned a few rentals in Cinci so know the market decently.It also comes down to how someone was born and bread.I had investors come from Cali and laugh at me and my "B class" properties.They said it's Z class.Even tho my entire team lives in the area and so did I for 10+ years.No silver spoon in my mouth growing up and I wouldn't sacrifice my families safety in a so called "Z class" area.But we are all different, right?

Make sure to pop over to the official city and county pages to get the scoop on population trends, income levels, crime stats, and upcoming projects.

San Antonio / Central Texas should be some solid areas for BRRRR strategy - I'd be a little careful in the gulf coast areas like Beaumont though - a lot of weather risks that unfortunately keep popping up

If mom and pop did poor marketing and you bring in professional-grade internet SEO and other methods you could theoretically double your revenue in one year without any additional cap-x.

Greetings,Many mom & pop Buy and Hold or BRRRR investors often overlook creative ways of acquiring property.

This may not keep a potential buyer from hiring their own inspector but if you show them the report openly at their showing and then tell/show them that you have fixed anything on the report and  on top of that provide them with your certifications there is a lot less chance of them getting squirrelly when something pops up on "their" inspectors report.

Similar to a previous comment around looking at future developments, Miami’s ready to pop areas are little Havana, allapatah, Graceland Heights, Little Haiti.  

When I go the Market Maker tab, a pop up immediately goes over the MM toggle switch, blocking it, and says I need 5 comps for MM to work.

I like to tell folks that are looking for HML to pop on lending homes website they have a very nice pricing matrix  they don't hide behind any vagueness in their rates.. so that is a nice baseline to see what real rates are for your experience level Fico and down payment.. good luck with your projects.
