@Leeann Aubuchon I'd like to get into MFH but it seems the general market for them is very high and competitive right now, so I'm leaning towards flips, as well as AirBnbs since I think they support the nomad lifestyle :) Cash flow is definitely the goal though!

But most of the people I know tend to like their California lifestyle.

We delved into the intricacies of structural repairs, electrical and plumbing systems, and the integration of fire-resistant materials to enhance the safety and resilience of the reconstructed house.Throughout the arduous journey, we encountered numerous setbacks and hurdles, which tested our resilience and problem-solving skills.

But really it is just a lifestyle for someone who is not yet ready to start investing.

This would be a great option for them to vet out the island, and see if the lifestyle might work for them. 

I would base my decision on rate of return, followed by lifestyle considerations. 

If I could block 20-30 users posts from showing to me it would greatly enhance my experience. 

I will redeploy to other assets (more passive) that fit better with my lifestyle life stage.At the same time they buyers, who have different goals and strategies, are happy to buy are current prices.

@Joshua Ocean Generally, people get emotional about a material loss when it causes actual damage to their own lifestyle or status...

In addition, if you strategize your back end with a strong reserve (real estate, stocks, cash, LLC) you can ask for bigger lines of credits to enhance to purchasing power on top of traditional loans.
