I am from North Idaho, and have been a licensed Real Estate agent for a year now.

Generally, for the optimal refinance, these are top of mind for BRRRR strategy investors:Return of capital: The key “secret sauce” of the BRRRR method is to build portfolios using the same capital over and over—which relies on getting your basis (or more) back on the refinance, where basis refers to the money you invested in the property (down payment and cash used for renovations).Speed: Refinance lenders use the term “seasoning” to refer to the amount of time (typically in months) between the purchase of the property and the refinance.

Purchase price: $328,500 Cash invested: $16,500 Bought as my first primary residence during COVID.

I'm excited to be here and connect with like-minded individuals passionate about real estate.

Just a shout-out here for Melanie, who helped us purchase our 3 bed / 2 bath in Scottsdale -- she's the best!

I will be moving to the Northern Virginia/DC area in a couple of months and would love to meet investors from the area as well as a real estate agent, insurance broker and/or attorney familiar with LTR/STRs.

@Kunal Lakhwani, have you thought about a co-management relationship with a local real estate agent to handle the tenant placement? 

I factored the cost of that capital into my calculations from the start (working the numbers backwards from the ARV to the purchase price)(this also encouraged me to buy the properties at a lower cost). 

Hi, im 22 years old and I have the resources to get stated in real estate by buying a foreclosure and rehabbing it.
