Your time as an investor is infinitely better spent analyzing markets and deals.

I want to buy the property depreciated at least slightly so i will have more equity for an infinite return after a future refinance.

If the property is up to bank financing standards I would try to purchase it with a low 3.5% fha loan (my opinion best for cash flow and infinite return strategy is a property that is up to standard of the lender but not newly renovated).

For example, there is a group I invest with that buys value-add apartments, fixes them up, increases occupancy and sets rents at market rate, then refinances the property and returns the invested capital to the investors and we all continue to hold the asset long-term, with no money left in the deal (AKA an "infinite return").

No matter where you live or where you own assets, I personally recommend the Series LLC to be a great tool for the individual investor who is planning to expand their operation, as it allows for you to scale infinitely for FREE.

As an appraiser, it is amazing, and infinitely annoying, possibly illegal even, how often a reconsideration of value request comes through when the appraisal does not hit the sales contract bulls-eye.

I'm closing this monday, and couldnt be happier, as I practically paid nothing to acquire a fully renovated property, still own 20% of it, and have cashflow.Final numbers after cashout$766 monthly payment (only went up $6)$1,100 potential rent$334 cashflow (not counting maintenance)+ $100K 80% of appraised value which is 125k- $3K closing cost- $73K previous loan= $24K cash going back to my bankSo, I could say this property cost me -$1,000 to acquire, making my ROI infinite!

My accountant talked to me a few weeks ago about getting financing for the down payment and another one for the complete mortgage to get infinite ROI.
