Its certainly hard to cash flow significantly in the current environment (high rates, high values etc) - I tend to think though that just "doing" a first deal even if it doesn't make too much is valuable versus getting stuck in analysis paralysis - the learning from the experience of actual doing it generally is 10X + even a ton of courses, info, spreadsheets etc

In the long run the demand may fall off a bit as the prices may get too high for travelers and they will seek cheaper vacations. 

We are doing OK but hope to get a lot more bookings the rest of the year for people coming to Pigeon Forge.Travel spending continues to break through all time highs. 

But with the new high interest rates it is very hard to decide if I should wait or bite the bullet.

Two big ones are the high minimum investment and the challenge of vetting syndicators and property deals.

So, looking at the flips I take on, with anticipated profits in the $70k+ range, the setup costs alone are eating nearly 20% of your potential profits, and that is before any real splits with your investors, leaving both your investors and you with not a lot of money left to spread around.A fund could work, but typically, for the economics of a syndication/fund structure to work, you are looking at several million of equity, leveraged up to high single millions, if not into $10+ million range for their to be enough money to make it worth everyone's efforts.

I highly recommend Brandon and Heather Turner’s book, “The Book on Managing Rental Properties.”

Lots of pockets showing high demand and infrastructure growth. 43609 is getting better and better and even too expensive in some parts…Further East of 43611 is turning43610 has nice streets 43605 border of Oregon and heart of Birmingham are great 43607 Scott Park is very interesting and use to be rough.

The cost of entry is low while the cash flow is high

I think Dave Ramsey(who I respect but don't worship, lol) would be highly disappointed in me for even thinking about doing this, SMH.
