@Brian Adams so basically my plan is to use my agent, who is willing, to write the offer, use transactional funding to double close to another investor on my buyer's list.

it actually does, at least for VRBO. because if you are API connected, then you collect the money for VRBO stays and pay taxes on it. if you are not API connected, then VRBO acts like Airbnb and handles all payments, etc.

I have also considered investing outside of California, but frankly, I keep finding really good deals here and so my money stays in-state. 

But even then the prices for new are so close to used, it is hard to justify used now.

Do you think I am wasting my time for this for 34k profit if I am spending close to 25 k in cash? 

Even if you inspected them all in the same day, you would have to drive eight hours, inspect for 3-4 hours, stay the night somewhere, and drive back the following day.

My initial reason for wanting to do a new consutrcution was because duplex/multifamilies in my area or close to it are around 800k.

In essence, after two years I would have turned a $192k down payment into $284k equity (minus agent commissions and closing costs).Net proceeds after selling = $284k - $38k (6% agent commission) - $5k (estimated closing costs) - $7k (cost to hold for 2 years w/ negative cash flow) = $234kAfter selling the property, my plan would be to roll this equity into other investment properties through a 1031 exchange.Questions:Is this a good opportunity?

VA has a one-time close product that we do a good amount off.

Willing to JV with someone who can close all these leads and possibly continue building a business with.Lets connect!!
