Being an Engineer that I am, I found myself always over analyzing and strategizing that I was stuck in the "Analysis Paralysis" state for quite some time.In February of 2022 I happened to struck up a conversation with an acquaintance about REI.

Definitely makes buy and holds less appealing and the need to be very strategic with timing of flips and the tax year.

However, we decided strategically and personally, that we wanted to give that up in exchange for investing solely in SFHs so that we have better exit options.  

You might want to strategize with your agent to look for properties that have been on the market a "while".  

I'd been thinking about a strategic way to diversify my investment portfolio to include investments not dependent upon the stock market, then a friend and fellow BP member) told me about this site.

I'll formulate some questions after I check the property out tonight and be in touch.Thanks again

Also, if done correctly and strategically, buying at a discount, rehabbing, renting, refinancing, and repeating, would allow me to build a healthy portfolio, generate a little cash flow, build equity over time, maybe 1031 exchange (defer taxes) some of the smaller properties for a larger multifamily property that cash flows more, and builds more long term equity. 

Indy is a good place to for REI, done strategically.

I’ve found the information on this site extremely useful as I need help formulating a strategy.

You are trying to identify and utilize hussles, your network, and specialized knowledge to your strategic advantage to add value to the transaction, earn your discount, and beat out your competition ... this is a theme that I find repeats itself often in investments and life.
