I'm leaning more towards flips for my first few deals just to help create more liquid cash in my account.

We are in a reverse frog boil environment  - Instead of boiling to death slowly they raised IR so fast that people are unsure/unclear when it's a good time to come back in - they will more than likely lower rates 1/8 to 1/4 point at a time, incredibly slow to allow the market drip back to normal preventing a surgeI'm also seeing people drop $5,600,000 in cash to $13,000,000 in cash like it's nothingCash rules down in florida even on 889K deals 

Purchase price: $100,000 Cash invested: $50,000 My partner and I are getting into our first fix and flip!

This was completely my fault due to lack of due diligence but not having the ADU dosent kill the deal it cash flows great and I can always use the ADU as a single guest bedroom to the original rental but would be better if rented separately

I was part of a companythat was buying companies back in 2008 and many companies back then scaled way to fast and ended up going broke from cash flow issues.

I even do my Lease Options through escrow to make sure the mortgages are paid and seller's don't walk with the cash leaving me a foreclosed property and no way to collect.

I would provide the cash and backup reserves, I house hack one of the units, then she becomes the cosigner for me in order to be approved.

Also feel free to contact me to get on my cash buyer list for future deals.Thanks, Art Weller

You're going to need to put 25% cash down since you'll be needing a commercial loan.

Cash flow is the name of the game when it comes to controlling the asset so you are right it really doesn't matter whether the value goes up or down as long as you can carry it.
