Sounds like it might be doable, especially since you have already experienced what it would be like.

Quote from @Zach Howard: Quote from @Jonathan Greene: If you are looking at properties in the US only on Zillow, and not seeing them in person (I know you are in Hong Kong), this is just an effort in futility because you can't underwrite single-family or small multifamily deals only online.

In today's tougher economic environment, I have recently experienced two cash calls.  

I am considering purchasing empty lots priced roughly $10-15K below market value.My plan is to offer owner financing for the land.These lots have water, drainage, and electric connections available, and mobile homes are permitted.The area is experiencing significant development, with the lots surrounded by new single-family homes.I would really appreciate any advice, feedback, or suggestions.Thank you

- Run a cost segregation study on this property in 2024 and you might have $100k on line 18...Without diving too deep on this post - If you run this scenario as a real estate professional while materially participating in the property, You'll be able to reduce your's and your spouses taxable income that year... 

That’s what I was thinking, but just wanted to make sure and ask the more experienced!  

Would love to hear the community’s thoughts—especially from experienced landlords, property investors, or those who’ve explored fractional real estate investing before!

I think there is a misunderstanding here by the new posters who come on this forum to post about negative experiences with their investments in real estate syndications or funds.We experienced, long time BP members are NOT saying that you haven't been "ripped off"; we're not saying that the sponsor of the investment hasn't done anything illegal or unethical or anything like that.
