My husband and I have several rentals, and we are looking to tear down a SFH in Imperial Beach and develop two townhomes plus and ADU. 

Making that first investment in real estate can feel like a big leap, especially when you're considering factors like your savings, potential risks, and the market conditions.

I know I need to start an LLC ( possibly several) and get a business bank account.

I've got a chance to pick up one in Flint in 48504.Rehab started with new subflooring and drywall hung.Would sell it for $4k.My question, is Flint worth taking this risk?

His erratic behavior indicates an increased risk of danger.

I've got a growing team of Hybrid VA'S (they do more than the typical VA) from the Philippines that I have cherry picked over the past several years. 

@Clayton Plummer Could buying a rental property that is already occupied mitigate the risk of not having immediate cash on hand the cash reserves? 

Multifamily real estate investments, such as duplexes, triplexes, or fourplexes, have the potential to increase total cash flow as they may produce several sources of rental revenue from a single asset.

And should you be new to the real estate game, starting with out of town rentals is a high risk proposition.

It's just tough finding anything that has negative cash flow of less than several hundred dollars.
