Now we are totally hooked on the idea of buy and hold real estate!

You will be surprised how much a nice color scheme can increase the value of a SFR and the cost is not that high.Remember we are still in a sellers market...

I feel for the OP as far too many first time buyers get into these 203K type deals where they are purchasing retail then spending 50-100k or more with zero construction knowledgeOn a side note, we are in Key West for a month then heading to North Carolina for a wedding but we plan on spending a few days in Charleston. 

I am looking at buying and there are a couple listings that have multiple units and I want to protect my investment by buying both but we are using an owner occupied VA loan and I would want to actually close on the sister property after we get the first BRRR finished.  

Wear-n-tear may increase with higher occupancy, but it can't easily be measured and quantified, so leave that bit alone.

I was thinking the same thing, maybe it's inflated due to excitement and might drop after the novelty wears off. 

We are currently using Athena management they charge an 8% flat for 2 doors and up.

We hope to meet many more partners and mentors through BP and we are excited to continue our quest.

We are using a high level of leverage with bank loans and private short term loans that will be paid off in the short term, we also have seller financed notes in the mix.I have seen much of Grant's materials in the recent months.
