@Amani Abdel-Dayem  wholesaling seems to be happening less, people want top dollar so most will sell on the MLS. 

What most people do in your scenario, is they sell the home and purchase a 2-4 unit.

Some people say buy the location and it doesn't matter the cash flow because appreciation.

@Tip MallickI think there is an international forum but not that many people invest internationally here and probably even less in Thailand anyway.It depends on your objectives (we all have different ones) but didn't you already answer your own question?

@logan @Logan M.don't tell these people the truth we don't need them in our niche, no competition is great 

People typically pay people $1 per sign to put them out.

Sometimes you just find people who don’t understand even the basics. 

When people say I am going to do the renovations myself, they usually mean doing everything without proper permits and then they get screwed when they go to sell.If you can find a house hack where the side you will live in needs cosmetic, direct replacement (no permits) work, that would be ideal because you can do both by living in and soft-flipping your side while getting income on the other.

You will have no inspections, so your 'Contractor' might miss something (Intentionally or not).

There is a TON of need to long term rentals in Tahoe, but a lot of people here can't afford really expensive rentals.
