Based on the few analysis Ive done so far, Ive been mostly focusing on COC ROI, initially doing long hand math using 4 square method, but now using the BP calculator, which have all generally yielded pretty poor COC ROI relative to what I hear in these american podcasts.

If I was making this post a few years back, I would certainly be leaning towards the House Hacking method, but I don't think she'd go for living in a duplex/triplex with other tenants, and considering we have two Australian Shepherds.Anyway, this is where my head is at for our first strategy: Buying our first live-in home as a fixer-upper and kinda/sorta implementing the BRRRR strategy. 

Is anyone currently practicing this method in this area?

Are you using cash for keys or any other methods for tenants with expired leases to prevent delays with holdover filings?

I just prefer the option method.  

Wondering if purchasing an updated bank owned foreclosure is also an option for the BRRRR method, allowing you to skip the rehab step and decrease risk determining ARV?

I feel like I have been reading and looking at different properties for awhile, but I am wanting to create a business plan that is somewhat adaptable/repeatable over time.

Yes, that restaurant better be adapted to the quick bite clientele than a grand sit-down for an hour especially in a busy part amidst a mobile crowdThere are generalizations to everything, but individual investors invest in specific real estate properties, and unless you are investing in REITs that are focused on one sector (say large retail like malls, etc), evaluate each property for its own merits and mix of tenants.
