You see this kind of rhetoric all over BiggerPockets, mostly from people who don’t know what success actually looks like.Instead, do this:Figure out what it takes to become successful, and then use what you’ve got to get what it takes to achieve success.So, here’s where you are now.Reverse-engineer success, then use what you have, say $5,000, to get what it takes—a high-converting, credible website, ranked #1 on Google, plus a dedicated marketing budget (e.g., Facebook ads) to close just ONE deal.A high-converting website costs around $100/month, and Facebook ads will run you about $2,500–$3,000/month.

I can feel that push internally, too—getting out there and connecting with people one-on-one is really my style.

Combine those facts and it seems logical families will opt to continue renting in the city longer in lieu of perhaps buying a starter home and they grow out of the apartment style housing units.

This way, you’re not going all-in on a new roof before you need to, but you’re also avoiding costly water damage that could eat into the savings.In other words, patch it up, keep it durable, and wait to replace only when there’s no life left in it—Tonka style!

Hello everyone,I’m in the process of replacing the backyard fence at one of my properties in Memphis, TN, and I’m considering upgrading from the current dog ear style to a more modern horizontal cedar wood fence.

What kind of hold period do you need to achieve the 16% IRR  while you are earning the 7% monthly rate?  

Are they picking window style and placement, exterior cladding, color, etc? 

Markets with balanced property prices and strong rental demand will be key.While rising prices and interest rates may impact cash flow, with careful deal analysis and a focus on areas with good appreciation potential, it's achievable.

The style is not on the current trends and attractive for a home that's priced 3-4x the average home in the area (nothing high end about it).
