Let's project this out shall we:1 - If each deal takes 18 months (assuming they are all the same) to fund/cash, and...2 - Each deal generates $7k (with all being perfect) at a cost per deal (in cash) of $85k.Goals:1 - $100k/year ~ $8k/month2 - Needs 14 properties to =~ $100k/month3 - 18 months * 14 properties = 252 months (21 years), and that doesn't include the time each deal takes to find, negotiate, finance, close, put a tenant in, etc...or any problems with the properties along the way.4 - Total cost out of pocket (not counting surprises):  $1.2M

Zero coupons are 1031 compatible products that do not pay monthly income but are assumption of debt for a value add project that let's the 1031 investor park debt in exchange for a payout later rather than mail box money today. 

I run my Ohio business remote with a local dedicated team in Ohio to move projects along and put out fires.

We talked for over 30 minutes about my project.

Looking forward to learning and paying back with any knowledge I can offer myself.My first project is going to be remodeling the ground floor section of the home first before working on the upstairs portion of the house.

Hi all, I have a remodel/room addition project to start early next year. 

I have enlisted him to be my project manager/work some of the project himself. 

I’m getting concerned about the labor part.Am I being overly simplistic to think I could - between Home Depot laborers- thumbtack and people I’ve used for projects at my house - I could manage a small rehab ..?

My main contractor doesn't have the resources to complete both projects at the same time.

Any lender is also likely to want to see that you have enough cash flow to make payments on the new loan, though some will lend with "no payments" until you sell or refinance the project.
