Let us discuss how to finance properties if you don't have a W-2 job, what are you all doing in this high-interest rate environment, what are the benefits of single family housing verses multi-family, vs self-storage.

Hey Mitchell, Doing a fix and flip in today's market with high-interest rates can be challenging, but it isn't necessarily a bad idea.

Don't get stuck on the high rent if it's not reasonable and/or if it's not making money.

Super easy to do.Should I hang them on the side of the house up high or put them on the ground down low?

If your property was in a downtown high rise, walking distance to the Action then you would have a demographic willing to pay for it.  

Take that money and buy RE in other growing markets, stocks, bonds, index funds, high yield savings, or probably a combination of it all. 

You will likely be in the high 7's or 8's right now but my heloc went up several points in a short time and that could happen again. 

That's kind of hard to stomach, and that in itself could be the cost of another SFH in my area.I also just despise paying high interest in general, so admittedly part of my reason for considering paying down the new mortgage is for peace of mind.

RE is highly cyclical and down markets can be painful for years…especially with leveraged properties.Good luck out there :)
