What's you're problem buddy!"...

A few weeks before I Bonds went semi-viral on social media, I asked my fellow former Marine buddy, who had become a financial advisor, what he thought of I Bonds.

The pros as you’ve stated, can be:-less maintenance as it’s a brand new property and things shouldn’t be breaking down, which as a new landlord is like operating with training wheels, as you will less likely be overwhelmed with constant maintenance requests-everything is in brand new condition which is appealing to prospective tenants, which can also allow you to rent out for higher amounts since the condition can make it more desirable compared to other options-the warranty (mine was 1 year) is very comforting to know you have it to fall back on-I’m under the impression that typically older/pre-existing properties have higher potential for cashflow, however, I feel that contrary to that belief, a lot of new construction fourplexes here have higher cash flow potential due to the higher rents you can charge.My current new construction fourplex cash flows pretty well, due to it having rents closer towards the higher end of the market, although the higher quality finishings make the apartments very desirable.Searching for my second fourplex, I’m leaning towards a pre-existing fourplex around 15-20 years old, as with the typical price point, it will allow me to have more funds leftover going into my third property.I’m pretty sure I know which new construction fourplexes you are referring to with that purchase price, as a buddy of mine lives in that city (if it’s what I’m thinking) and he was considering buying one of those new construction properties and the expected rents make it seem like it should be a solid investment.

I drive through it every time I head to the lake house and had 2 buddies that went to Central Wash University.

You need a website, realtor referrals, lender referrals, insurance adjuster buddies and get on every social media that's free with images.

Have a buddy that is looking to jump into a mixed use rental in Ocean City, MD. 

Yes, if it is just painting, then maybe recruit some buddies and pay them with pizzas and knock it out in a weekend. 

Sure, obviously the right property management team is still absolutely imperative and boots on the ground connect or home town buddy with the connect is a serious bonus but with all the technology at our fingertips like never before it’s truly made buying out-of-state an open vessel for wealth and prosperity for your average property investor.
