Control more cash in MM or CD's so we don't take the full inflation bite, holding cash. 

More of a cash flow than appreciation market?

I am helping a client who is also a Veteran to do this exact thing right now; at first he wasn't sure he wanted to move twice to make it happen, but when he realized he was going to basically get a cash flowing rental property for free(no money down) he realized it was an easy decision.

Purchase price: $120,000 Cash invested: $60,000 417 old falls blvd is a multi use property having office/ warehouse spaces on 1st floor and a 3 bed 1 bath apartment upstairs.

What is the rate of return (cash on cash) if you complete the rehab and rent it?  

Return ALL security deposits to BOTH of them in a check written out to both of them so that both need to sign to cash the check.

It wasn't too long ago (about 7 years now) I was flipping my first mobile home trying to get some cash together!

You keep large amounts of cash in your hand to invest in the next property.

Wholesaled the deal to cash buyer How did you add value to the deal?

I actually just did a dscr loan to pay off the hard money I borrowed on the second property (where we live and rent the actual house) I estimate the appraisal to come in around $215-280K which if I were to take out 80% would barley give me enough to buy anything in the FL market and have cash left over for renovations.Not sure if im missing a step here or if it might be best to buy an auction home with that cash to flip and have more capital to have more deal options.
