Can’t argue against those either.I am 65 and in solid secure financial position - so my risk reward ratio leans more towards capital preservation - with solid line drive base hits - rather than swinging for the fences with a Class C value add.

I love helping people and solving problems so I am looking forward to all of the challenges and rewards that come along with this business.

I’m glad you had some equity upside but this risk vs the reward doesn’t seem there at all.

The former choice seems more affordable but with less reward and the latter is more expensive but would generate passive income on top of adding value through some small renos.

I am looking at some properties in San Diego. I am wondering what all you ADU property investors are doing to evaluate adding the unit in an area that has no comps with an ADU or comparable sq footage. I have learned ...

What risks/rewards/challenges/etc do you see here?

If there’s no “take home” in it for me in the first several years that’s totally fine because properties are being paid off and before long it will be cash flowing for me to reap the rewards a little more directly.If it’s my first deal, and in my hometown rural market, what are your thoughts on that scenario?

Higher risk should be rewarded with higher cap rate (11%, 12% etc)

Lay off all of those loyal employees as the reward for creating that great year of sales? 

I've learned that our government actually rewards those who employ others as opposed to being an employee yourself.
