Hey @Blaise Bevilacqua - I'm a broker & investor in NYC, also a househacker and have worked with multiple househacking clients in Brooklyn/Queens.If you're curious, checkout my YouTube page for a podcast episode with my clients that were in your exact same shoes last year that ended up purchasing a househack in Bushwick.

Buying pre-construction properties in Latin America to flip within a short period of time is a risky strategy in general but even more so today given the rise in prices over the last few years.Medellin is a great place to invest provided you buy the right kind of property but not because it's still undervalued according to international standards.

Last year I got money back because of a shortage now there’s a massive overage.

I have an 8-5 that brings in just under 100k and I work as a part time realtor(sold 3 houses last year and had a rental deal too) and I bartend most Sat nights(300 a night, working 4-11)If I sell the 2 family, after 15% cap gains and 2% to the buyer agent and lawyer fee and pay off all our debt(wife and myself, not mortgages) We would have about 150k left over.If I sell the cabin, after agent fees and cap gains we’ll probably walk with 60k.Would keep pushing forward?

I put alot of importance in reading, so I made them read classics at 1st, then mindset (think and grow rich etc) then financial acumen (rich dad etc) thankfully they all have w2 jobs so 401k match, roth etc. 2 are homeowners (don't want to be REI investors) but the last 1 is saving for REI investing.

A DST with a 721UpReit option is typically held for 2 years after the last investor has entered the deal and the offering is closed.

These are all initial impression assumptions that I will explore more in another post. 

@Ankit Biradar there are a few long threads on this over the last few years.

I got a duplex UC last spring that had about 200k of work to do to its ARV is well over $1m but each unit will be renting for close to 5k. 

Hello BP Community,I've been following the social media channels closely and decided to hop on here and say hello 👋🏻I'm Marco, and I'm 29; I was born in Italy, traveled the world with my wife for the last four years, and eventually settled in the Canary Islands for 1.5 years.I hold a PhD in Electrical Engineering and have worked in tech for the last five years, which eventually granted me an NIW green card.We (my wife and I) hold a $1.2M+ portfolio of 4 self-managed short-term rental properties (across the Canaries and Italy) and a long-term property in Rome, Italy, that we rent out to students.
