It can be hard for us to see because we are "zoomed in" to our own experiences and timeline, but in reality what we are experiencing right now has been experienced in several waves before over the past 100 years.For us right now debt is unbelievably inexpensive, which creates a huge demand both from the homebuyer and investor pools,  There are other factors influencing returns downward, too, but at the end of the day the diminishing returns we're seeing are part of an economic cycle and should be shaken up by some event or series of events in the future.Or it won't . . . here's to speculating (clink)!

Investors tend to be repeat customers so the agents pool of buyers may be interested in your properties. 

As an example, if you decide to look for a townhouse in the Ghent or Oceanview area, the likelihood of you finding a high quality roommate/tenant are much higher.You'll pay a slight premium over a similar townhouse in most of Norfolk, but you'll have a much larger pool of high quality applications to choose from (both during and after you move out of said househack).

I called today a listing agent of the pool home, which got into pending within 4 days.

What are your overall thoughts on homes with pools?

You could pay them a base salary and structure something where they get a % of the Promote/Profit earned from the projects.As Matt lays out in his book, some type of pooled vehicle or syndicated entity ends up becoming part of the solution as well.

Given this limit learning how to syndicate/pool money (i.e. using OPM) is something that you should put in your toolbox.

However my places are here in Columbus OH where we have a strong tenant pool, also my places were newly renovated and had high demand.

They both have approved plans to build mansions including a pool, they’re water front and sit facing Biscayne Bay and the city of Miami.
