If it's an (A) location you do not need 1.5 years especially to land a franchisee restaurant tenant.When I look at a property I look at the current value, the dark value, and the re-potential value.Lot of commercial developers sell off marginal tenants at market rents.Example me buying a Wal-mart with 10 plus years left at a 7 cap is way different than trampoline or workout place at a 9 cap.On its face the 9 cap may be appealing but then you find out for that box size the crap tenant is paying 1 dollar below what national tenants pay.

If you want immediate cash flow then the best way to do it is looking off market in Florida, and seeing if you can add value. 

We have gone from essentially no retirement, to excess funds while also producing generational wealth for our girls.Your best deals will be found off-market, so partner up with a few realtors in your area.

Ii am looking for guidelines to get off-market, foreclosure, distressed properties in wake county or within 60 minutes of travel. please throw some light and guide me.

I want to start off by saying that I am a Zillow sicko.

So, if I am putting down say 20 percent on a new loan for a vacation rental, my realistic goal should be "Let other people pay off the rest of my investment for me."
