Much better cash flow than the springs but will incur far less appreciation IMO.

I’ll have access to $50K in liquidity in a few weeks or less and I’d love to get 5+ cash flowing properties in 2024.

I have 20k saved and plan to use an FHA 203K loan and house hack to net zero/cash flow minimally on my first investment.

Is a balance between appreciation and cash flow what you're after?

In the year that the investment property is sold, should the cash flows include not only the cash inflow from the sale of the property but also a cash outflow equal to the mortgage balance on the Balance Sheet at the time?

I pay them back asap with the rental cash flow and any extra cash I have sitting around from my W2.

Is it purely about the cash flow?

The city is one that’s consistently listed as a top 10 2024 real estate market, the projected cash flow is intriguing ($50,000 - 25% down payment, estimated $7500 annual cash flow), both units are leased until October and December (as a potential new landlord this gives me some security), but I feel hesitant with offering on a century old property.

If it cash flows a little, great, but appreciation -- despite the skepticism on this site of that word -- is the real money-maker in real estate.

The Seller guarantees that the property will be clean and unoccupied within 14 days of the valid offer.
