Eventually I hope to cash flow where I'm making larger outright note purchases, but for now at my price point, smaller CFD's (around $15k UPB) are what I can afford.Given that these are CFD's, I'm noticing that recording costs are a little heftier than just recording an assignment of mortgage. 

Any market and any property can cash flow.

I have a long-term rental in STN MTN (Stone Mountain) GA, and have a one year lease with a section 8 tenant and content with the cash flow, however, I can make more if the basement gets converted to a separate unit.

If you are single or a couple agreeing to go on a house-hacking journey together, you probably want to maximize your mortgage paydown or make a small amount of cash flow.

Hold time and cash flow expectations 5.

I am basically the traditional Asian family that spent my entire life saving money and purchasing a place in New York City, and after trying to survive for a while I find it too hard now that it’s 2 people and decided to move back to my hometown and do some investing looking for cash flow in particular.

Looking to utilize the BRRRR strategy for my upcoming properties to build that portfolio of cash flowing appreciating properties!

Plus, I want to increase my portfolio as much as I can for the cash flow because I'm about 4 years away from retiring.   

The less risky/more logical avenue seems to be to LTR one unit for more predictable cash flow and STR the other unit to create availability for my relatives when they come to visit.

I am guessing they do everything including cleaning themselves and must have paid all cash.
