When I was in my mid 20's I was looking at purchasing a really old (1930's) two story Victorian in rough shape for like $15,000 (a strategy I would never recommend).

Look into "wholesale" strategies...I don't personally know anything about that though hahahaha.

It has become clear to me that in Denver you have to develop great strategies and skills for finding the duplex/quadplex that will cash flow outside of MLS listings because you won't find them there.

@Darius Moezinia Refinance right after the completion of a 1031 is perfectly acceptable and is a frequently used strategy when cash is desired by the exchangor who does not want to create a taxable boot situation by taking cash or be seen as inappropriately accessing profit by a refinance immediately before a sale that begins a 1031.

Blessing in disguise, or  new strategy on future units?

What exactly are you looking for and whats your investment strategy.

Rarely can we do value-add strategy?

What is your strategy on this house?

I want to use the BRRRR strategy to flip homes in the Portland metro area.

Per client, choose one strategy and one only... independently each time, each client... then disclose, and don't get tempted to cheat.
