The Justice Department’s acting assistant attorney general, Doha Mekki, put it bluntly: this case is about ending the practice of “putting profits over people.”

In general, I have found everyone seems to recommend the Land Conquest free lessons and the Turning Profit podcasts.

I’ve developed a Comprehensive Investor Report (CIR) for a property in Palm Coast, FL, designed to be transformed into a luxury rental asset while serving as the foundation for a scalable asset management strategy.Here’s a quick snapshot of the deal:Property: Red Birch Lane, Palm Coast, FLCurrent Value: $350,000+Mortgage Balance: $165,000Current Equity: $185,000Investment Required: $177,500 (for luxury upgrades and optimization)Projected Monthly Rent: $4,500 with 2% annual increasesTarget ROI: Full 1.5x ROI for investors achieved in 9 yearsLuxury Features: Smart home automation, designer finishes, professional-grade kitchen appliances, and more.I’ve also structured a capital distribution plan with a waterfall approach:8% Preferred Return for investors.Full Return of Capital to investors before profit splits.Post-ROI, a 20/80 split (Investor/Management) ensures long-term alignment.

If both houses were sold in 2024 then the loss will negate the profit from my understanding.

My vote is invest in other markets where the money makes sense and then take that profit to visit whenever you like. 

I am guessing you like the numbers you see in Strawberry Mansion and Norristown (Montco not Philly) but do you know for a fact that at those numbers, you can do a full gut rehab and be at a number that will allow you to profit, and along the way make some sizable mistakes especially if this is your first project . . . 

Should I buy it and take  500-600 less profit per month knowing I can sell it for a large profit as is or even more if completely remodeled?

Id like to understand what the most profitable way to fix up a current 1,700 SFR in a 6,200 sq. foot lot would be?

Sell it for $220-240k rangeInvestor puts in $60-90k, Flips for $350-400k realizing a profit of $50-100k. 

What an investor gives up though is tax bene's and the chance ( well at least proforma wise) that you bought at X cap rate and can sell at Y cap rate and there is a big profit that is added on to your returns.
