I've been watching Chad Carson's videos and his approach of accumulating more properties than you need, then start using that income to pay off mortgages and cull the lower performing properties makes sense to me. 

If you can just make sure you are buying right, everything else falls into place eventually.There are markets that perform better than others, but unless you are holding long-term or building rentals, you shouldn't really care too much since flipping is all about buying at the right price for that market:

Tough to stay disciplined as "Past performance is no guarantee of future results". 

Maybe it would have skyrocketed our performance, but I doubt it.  

Note investing can be divided into performing vs non performing.  

With minor cosmetic upgrades, he increased the rents, and now it’s one of the best-performing properties in his portfolio.I also had a client in Providence last year who bought a fourplex.

There is a potential scenario where an outside rescue fund (marketed as preferred equity to new investors) could come into play in many of the projects that appear to be performing especially if they have been paying the pref (via a reserve account stockpiled by over raising funds in the beginning).

@Ben Cochran I hope you have factored STR tax savings into your cashflow and ROI as it can be significant.Leveraging equity to purchase a short-term rental (STR) in Tampa Bay can diversify your portfolio and potentially generate strong cash flow, but it also increases your financial risk.While your properties hold significant equity, adding debt from HELOCs or a DSCR loan could strain your finances if STR performance fluctuates or costs rise.
