We were just attempting to cash-out refi it at $120k loan value and the appraisal came in at $95k, making it useless to cash-out refi via this method.

Is anyone from the Sac-Stockton-Modesto area doing the BRRRR method?

Especially after the tenant has been there a while we do not get any complaints.I think my method or Justin's method is superior to reading the submeters monthly. 

(DMM could work... but it is the least effective form of marketing from all the other methods, in my honest opinion)

(No HOA.)This has given me back a ton of time, required fewer cleanings and lessened the impact on the neighbors.I can adapt my calendar to monthly or nightly stays just by adjusting my availability.

Using my assumptions in the spreadsheet, here is the outcome after the 2nd BRRRR house compared to a traditional method of just paying the 25% down and rehab costs out of pocket for the two homes.Assumptions: Both houses bought at $100k with 25% down, $20k put into each house for rehab, refinanced at 75% of $160k ARV for each house.BRRRR Method End Result: You invested $45k of your own money and bought 2 $100k houses, spent $40k on rehabbing both houses, you're in $195k debt and own 2 houses with an ARV of $320k.Traditional Method End Result: You invested $90k of your own money and bought 2 $100k houses, spent $40k on rehabbing both houses, you're in $150k debt and own 2 houses with an ARV of $320k.Is the whole point of BRRRR to buy 2 houses with less total personal cash invested and more leveraged?

No matter which one you choose, .. do not wing it.SEO is ABSOLUTELY the best method to get leads,. there is absofrigginlutely no arguing here and it is not a matter of opinion.NOW.. that said... how realistic is it for anyone/everyone/someone..

Maybe not as well as it used to be but I'm landing deals and it's my primary method of marketing. 

Marketing is an investment,You are telling him do NOT try the  methods that are PROVEN to work  and just wing it with the free methods that are PROVEN not to work... to get a deal.Yes it is expensive... duh.

At my offer price and market rates I believe it could work for a flip or BRRRR method.
