You could buy a multifamily, fix it up, rent out units while living in one, then refinance to pull out your initial investment and repeat the process.Additionally, deep-diving into specific areas within your target markets will help you identify properties with higher rental potential for your mid-term strategy.And regarding owner-occupying your first multifamily, this could be an interesting option depending on your financial goals and risk tolerance.

I am a property manager all over the Triad, and our market is still very reliant on analysis that is street by street and dependent on the condition of the property or the renovation.

You don't have to skip the daily Starbucks to do it, you need to focus on how will you save large (3.5-20% depending on route you go) sums of money. 

Deductibility depends on the type of charity and is also subject to a percentage of the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income.

I can help with cold calling.Cost per lead is usually going to be in the $20-$50 dollar range (assuming a VA cold caller with native English) and a cost of about $0.20 per record for them to call potential motivated sellers (high equity, certain age, etc).CAC is going to depend on your conversion skills, but within 3-6 months can be $1500 to $5K depending on how many leads it takes you to close them.

I have 375k into the deal, rented the property for two years at a 140kgross and will pay the owner off that note in about 11 mos. the property is now around 650-700k. depends on your situation but for the nominal difference your talking I say go for it but if you're leveraging the upfront you need to cash in the overage for the appraisal and vice versa if your cash up front then have the seller carry a note from my experience- it also shows that the seller believes in the project by doing so if they won't carry a note separately id potentially walk but thats because we do mostly cash deals and the inability of them to believe in what I am willing turn me off to the deal when your talking about this gap

Generally speaking, people that attend these events are there to network, learn, and teach depending on their experience level.Feel free to reach out to me as well - happy to help however I can!

But pay no taxes on income/gain since it is in SDIRA (depends on your tax bracket but this is a big benefit to me).I did some private lending at 12% in the past in SDIRA-so tax free.Meanwhile my W-2 401k and some of my SDIRA is in S&P 500 index.

Outside of that, each submarket in ME has a different flavor, depending on what your goals are.

It may also be dependent on when you catch them so it is helpful to follow up every so often.
