.-- Continuing to purchase rehab flip properties.The mixed approach seems to be a real happy medium for me. 90% of my deals are REOs and a handful are private sellers looking to liquidate.

So theres some good mixed with some bad.

We don't allow pit bulls, dobermans, chows, akitas, or German shepards, or any mix of these breeds.

I have mixed feelings about this.

You're going to find a mix of brand new development and old rural tracks with acreage and everything from dilapidated ranch homes to brand new custom mansions.

Mix up some thinset using the instructions on the bag, then, using a 1/2in notched trowel, spread thinset over the area with the flat side, then use the notched side to make ridges.

If you were to develop some big whopping mixed use complex, you might sell the thing to some big company.

No sense in adding another deal to the mix that is off the mark, especially when you know up front that it isn't hitting your numbers.

You can't take the real estate losses against your income, but you can carry those losses forward and use them to offset gains when you sell the property.With the right mix of properties you can offset profits with paper losses effectively eliminating the taxes on an unlimited amount of cash flow.

You can do SFDs and commercial in a mixed use project, You can partner with the dveloper as the land owner and survey property out that you would like to keep.
