Are you looking to flip, LTR, MTR?

I’m not looking to flip or do rehab.

What are some common structural issues that home owners encounter in Santa Fe?

So if you can find a parcel that doesn't seem to have multiple fatal flaws, or at least you think you can add value to fixing/figuring out their constraints, then I would do that and then just flip on the MLS, especially if you are able to let it "season" a bit, which the title companies in California require anyway...they won't insure a flip of a tax parcel until some time has passed.

I am in the Tampa Bay Florida area and look forward to meeting, working and learning from those who are willing to share your knowledge.Hi Allison, I moved to Columbus a few years ago (from Portland, Oregon which was super expensive) to become a full time real estate investor, and ever since, I've completed quite a lot of BRRRRs, flips, and own a successful rental portfolio here in Columbus Ohio. 

The other issue aside from the giant hassle is now that the payment is higher I'm less likely to cash flow and will be at slightly  higher risk of default.
