Apparently, there are other strategies I don’t know about yet. 

The ARV came back reasonable, but on the report, the appraiser only used Vrbo data and no Airbnb data, which many of my neighbors use both platforms.

Not here to defend anyone or point fingers but we have had many unsatisfied investors over the past 10 years.Most will buy 1 property and expect miracles.It takes a larger portfolio to make it more stable and more cashflow profitable long term.Owning 1 or 2 properties can always be a hit/miss.Owning a larger portfolio should over time perform better "year after year".Just my opinion based on PM data that we see on the back end.Much success

This might affect your equity position and future refinancing options.Subject To Financing: Taking over the existing $325k mortgage is a common strategy, but make sure to thoroughly review the terms of the existing mortgage.

This would apply to a BRRRR, Buy and Hold property strategy-- Anyone use a HELOC, (interest only) for a BRRRR with success for a multi-year length of time?

Notably, by the year 2022, I further expanded my real estate portfolio with the acquisition of another condominium, which I presently employ as a house hacking investment strategy.

Let me know if you’d like to jump on a call and discuss your goals and strategy.

Some of my best strategies have been:- Home Depot parking lot early in the morning- new subdivisions, new trades on display every day- local REIA clubs

I like to use a mix of the 2024 HUD Fair Market Rents, MLS previously rented units w/ pictures to see what type of tenant expectation aligns with the rent price, AND Rentometer.com to get a bunch of data on a new market.

However, I'm intrigued by the strategy of having your girlfriend pay you rent, and I'd like to understand it better.
