I'm looking to find the big key players in my market/community who are doing tons of flips and buy and holds to try and learn and model some of their systems and most importantly bring about value that could lead to deals or even possibly a partnership.

Other creative options may apply whereby you could lease option or lease purchase (not my area of expertise) to buy you time to graduate and qualify for those loans but lock up the property until then.

Below are some the expenses you should think about when modeling out for a VR in Tahoe.  

I have never heard or have seen of REI investors reference time share models.  

@Anthony Addessi,I don't have a brand to recommend, but DO NOT BUY the cheapest grade builder boxes.... they break or just soften from humiditylook for solid, medium grade and lots in stock in your locale.if with lights, change all bulbs to LEDtry to standardize: (not 5 models in the same house)you tenant base would dictate how nice....

We could use your resident expertise of the st.

However, this...Practically, this means you can have sold your previous home last week, but can't own other RE as of closing except as described above.So for folks that already own a bunch of real estate, not really a model match.Anyone just getting out, however, folks in their network need to be bringing this to their attention!

I am thinking of investing in Cleveland and have a decade of renovation management expertise.

That will tell you how many units you can build on the site.Next, do a full underwriting or proforma analysis of the project, of which the build costs, are one component in the model.

You're right about needing to find a place that you can fix up and raise rents on--which is our business model.
