Samana appealed to me - it’s gorgeous, green, mountainous and lush (surprisingly so), small, friendly villages, amazing beaches.

And the property gets an instant curb appeal boost as well.So yeah, you'll need a new HVAC.

There is some nasty foreclosure/usury limitations being challenged in CA courts right now and the appeals are still pending.

Updated Property with more amenities, maximized beds from 2 queens to 3 beds ( 1 king + 2 queens) , and remodeled exterior with a much more appealing hangout space that includes hot tub/outdoor dining/geodesic dome. 2.

BUT.......the premise behind the Investors Edge is so appealing!

The numbers only appeal to OO, and for sure affordability is key.

The idea appealed to Meta employees, who had plenty of money to spend, along with a natural affinity for a crowdfunding website reducing the friction of real-life investments.

I second a good side hustle and have spent some money utilizing a real estate photographer which is one way to get going and making good money with only about $700 worth of equipment.

It is starting to look more appealing for the price.Our STR in Florida is breaking even or profitable most months, even at 10% down for a 2nd home.

At that time it was an area with homes that move relatively quickly and a low enough price point with the rates to make it appealing to buyers.
