Thats the true heart of someone that has the "want to succeed at all costs".Most people would never think of selling their home and to live in their In- Laws basement.

I got the address and drove to the property.As I pulled up to the house, my heart was pumping.

That said, filling empty mobile home park pads is not for the faint of heart...it can be very time consuming and slow, dealing with multiple vendors and government permitting offices.  

But if your heart is in flipping, you could "go big or go home" and perhaps look for more lucrative flip opportunities that may require a bit more work, but would pay off better.

I am a saver at heart and if/when the housing or stock market crashes, I will take the opportunity to reinvest then. 

So while my snowball that I'm building gets a little bigger owning 50% of a property vs sitting on the sidelines, if I save up to do it on my own, that snowball gets a much bigger boost.

I took that to heart.

I am an out-of-state investor looking for the best of both worlds: high cash-flow properties that also have the potential for capital growth.Does anyone know of new universities under construction, or other infrastructure projects that are likely to boost values in a high-cash-flow area?

Overestimate maintenance costs, cap-ex holdbacks, needed reserves, etc. and you won't end up having a heart attack when one of those challenging tenants passes your screening process. 

If your projects have high leverage (which I recommend), you can boost your profit by 25%+ each time ... if you do 12 deals a year (which many of our customers do) ... that is hundreds of thousands of dollars in profit ... enough to hire an assistant for $40K a year to do all the leg work.Regarding @Jim Carson's comment.
