Focusing on one asset type or strategy in the beginning is generally most effective than trying to learn an new strategy every year.

@Chris Seveney any recommendations for someone with some experience but trying to get theirs arms around systems and processes to scale their portfolio?

We sold the home for $267,000, highlighting our effective renovation strategy and commitment to achieving outstanding results through strategic investments and collaboration.

@Chris Marette, take this with a grain of salt, because the only times I appealed appraisals were before COVID.In my experience, if you stay with the same lender and you get a second appraisal, the best I got was an average of the two appraisals.  

And just to clarify if anyone else is reading this: buying an interest rate cap, while effectively buying down the interest rate is NOT like buying down the rate on your personal mortgage.A point on your personal mortgage locks in the lower rate for 30 yrs and the mortgage fully amortizes.  

Does anyone have experience with permitting with the city?

I only deal with small multifamily buy and hold but looking to expand my experiences and knowledge. 

I have project management and re agent experience along with time so I keep coming back to flipping with an occasional brrr to build long term.

I had a feeling that this might be an issue, but as a newbie sometimes it makes more sense when you hear it from someone with experience.

But I'm sorry to say that I lack experience with that in a very damp climate like Northern California's coast.
