I think you may have very well narrowed down my strategy choices down to one of three; the BRRRR method (although this might be too much to start with for a newbie), the live-in flip that you mentioned (probably the most practical as I've been part of many different projects in the construction industry), and a combination of house-hacking/live-in flip (probably the most rewarding with a potential to swap between units as I finish one in order to bring better rental income).

I'm considering diverse options for reinvesting the proceeds ($200k+) from a planned 1031 exchange and am open to various strategies:Las Vegas/Reno: These markets offer potential for both cash flow and appreciation, but I'd need more information on their suitability for mid-term rentals and current market conditions.BRRR strategy: This approach could be attractive for value creation, but I'm hesitant about out-of-state management and require a turnkey or experienced team to handle renovations.Other locations: I'm open to exploring other markets offering favorable investment opportunities, particularly turnkey properties or areas with manageable maintenance requirements.My preferences:Turnkey properties: Minimize management headaches and focus on cash flow.Limited appreciation: While some appreciation is welcome, cash flow is the primary priority.Shorter-term rentals: While Airbnb isn't an option in my current area, I'm open to exploring short-term rentals in other markets.Avoidance of major renovations: My recent experience has solidified my preference for well-maintained properties.Current portfolio:3 duplexes in Missouri (mixed performance)1 single-family home in Memphis, TN (turnkey, positive experience)Questions for the community:What are your thoughts on Las Vegas and Reno as potential investment destinations?
