Let's connect, share our experiences, and see how we can positively impact the investing world, both for ourselves and our community.I am looking forward to hearing from you!

i don't do/invest in residential real estate but perhaps it would be possible to learn SFR by getting job in property management, also get RE agent license, then once you have learned a fair bit, form a syndication with yourself as GP, get your college friends, their families, and anyone you know to invest as limited partners, then buy a rental house for cash, and you take 20-25% equity and provide the property management for a % of the rent, whatever is industry standard.

Once you get to retirment age you trade your equity for cash flow.

:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+, zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680, some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

Your reviews need to be as positive as possible.

You likely have to live there longer and/or plan to use it as a rental property (assuming the revenue is high enough) because you're starting at zero equity.  

This property grosses about 250k/year and has $1.8mil-ish in equity... 

Hello everyone,I'm currently exploring the housing market in search of my first personal home, which I intend to rent out in the near future after putting in some sweat equity.

What is your position?  

I am looking to borrow against my equity in one property to renovate my second property that I purchased a few months ago.
