Get real data and use your brain.

If you just say it, and all they see is that final rent amount, "poof" no discount, it's how the brain works.

Even if you own one side flat out you cannot finance the other based on Fannie and Freddie (brain dead).

If you are concerned with buying in the more stable area, I would stick to locations that are east of the train tracks and under a 10 minute walk from the area of Frankford Ave between the Beer Garden and Pizza Brain.

Also, Ill be at my current fix and flip in West Philly if you'd like to come passed and pick my brain momentarily I would mind.

@Drew Palmer Can I pick your brain a bit about that property?

If you have success in this area please reach out to me I'm looking to pick your brains and also make connections.

I'm not sure if you've used ChatGPT before but sometimes if I have a brain block I'll input a question like #3 into the search bar and see what it comes up with.

I am currently living in Los Angeles, but wanting to get into investing where I have some connections in northern Florida and in Oklahoma City.I wanted to see if I could pick anyone's brains who have had experience in either of these markets (investors, investor-minded realtors, lenders) —and more specifically:1.)

Would love to pick your brain and see how we can put our ideas together to collab on this further.
