You don’t get to just expense the additional real expenses.

In my market - new build duplexes dont cash flow well but are typically a great 5-10 year investment. 

opens up a lot more markets and opportunities. you can build a 400 square foot unit or 4 of them or 3 of them or any size unit you want on any lot. 

Based in Santa Monica, focused on out-of-state markets with strong growth.Not here for sales pitches, just real connections, real deals, and real conversations.

I think market auctions are better for newer investors because you're able to see the inside of the property and the property will be delivered vacant.If you win you will have to provide a deposit that is held in escrow until the transaction closes.

I also have no interest in being in the car wash business, or the laundry business, or the AirBnB business, things like that which seem to appeal to a good number of people, but not me.I like to KISS, and just focus on market rate rentals, 12 to 18 month leases.

You''ll need more down and additional reserves.

(I assume trying to get free leads or market their name as the local expert.)If no one at your broker will help, reach out to new realtors.

I know this is not true because I've used IDI data since 2019 and it's the best on the market.
