I've heard of mentees who started cleaning up construction areas on a flip at the end of each work day or picking up supplies at Home Depot and delivering them to the job site.

He's three points and 12% to start and he will not supply rehab funds on the first one. 

More demand than supply.

Throw in a few nice touches, like coffee or board games, to wow your guests.Keep extra linens, cleaning supplies, and essentials like toilet paper handy so turnovers are quick and easy.

You can show a packet to the mayor of the city, and they'll focus on a 3d picture of the development rather than 10 bullet points on how it will increase affordable housing supply. 

If you are priced well and the condition is great barring there is not a ton of supply, then you will sell quickly!  

The money that you end up owing to repay the loan over the 5 year term is now post income tax money unlike how you traditionally are supplying your 401k with pre-tax money.  

The market supply has had a surplus meaning they are sitting longer and "stockpiling", nothing crazy but it is noticeable in the chart.

To create rental income that enables financial freedom, you need a location that meets specific criteria.Rents increase faster than inflation: Prices and rents are driven by the imbalance between demand and supply.

I guess my challenge right now is to define the strategy and balance all the factors, such as job and population growth (value increase), cashflow (demand & supply market, interest rate, property tax, maintenance cost), and risk control (insurance etc).
