It really depends on what you prefer, some prefer crypto currency (not me), I prefer private lending / mortgage notes and structured it in a way where there is no ordinary income taxation on it, so it is treated as a qualified dividends.You can invest in anything / any type of business, it really is based on what YOU want to invest in.

A good realtor (which is sometimes hard to find) is a great resource to estimate current property value and ARV, however, remember that they are going to give their opinion based on what they see on the market.

I'm a Longmont based investor/agent and have been hosting a monthly REI meetup in Longmont for a few years now.

I have met a lot of people but I have always wanted to start a group network in miami, which is where I am based.

I'm taking all of the expense percentages like 10% capex, 10% pm, 5% repairs and maintenance, 10% vacancy, $100 ish for home insurance based on my area, 0.7% for PMI based on my credit score, and then standard amounts for utilities, lawncare, and WiFi. 

You still have to know the pro forma rents though since literally nothing meets the 1% rule based on in place rents.

Hi All, 
I am completely new to this platform. Looking for insights on areas for investing on a townhome with potential appreciation and rental cash flow. Are there any good markets for 2024?

Thanks,

An additional benefit of a detailed engineering-based Cost Segregation Study is that it can increase potential insurance premium savings as well as provides support for the property tax appeals process.Additionally, it can help maximize renovations and improvements.A Cost Segregation study is an IRS approved federal income tax tool that increases near term cash flow by utilizing shorter recovery periods for depreciation to accelerate return on investment.
