HOWEVER, it's worth it for me as I just received a $40k buyer broker commission on the purchase of my own property.If you research all the costs and compare it to what you potentially can save on your own purchases, plus commissions on any transactions that you worked on for clients, you can figure out whether or not it would be worth it for you.

Unfortunately Bridge loans carry a higher rate that’s more comparable to commercial lending.

It's true that you can't really compare average price to average rent. 

Buyers are still shopping some may take longer as sticker price may hit them but once they realize rent prices are still comparable to mortgages its a no brainer.

Collin -Go on HomeAway, VRBO and/or Airbnb and look at the calendars of comparable short term rental vacation home properties in the area of the home you are considering purchasing.Here in the Orlando area, the nightly rates and occupancy %s for homes that are new or newly renovated with fun amenities are significantly higher compared to those that need renovating and offer limited fun amenities.

If you think you can grab the scale to move into full time flipping it can be a very fun and rewarding career. 

I know it involves significant renovations and legal help but I believe all units will sell for about 12 million and we would only be into in for 4 million or less compared to selling or doing buyouts based on the appraised value of 2.5million.

Once you find a market analyze as many deals as possible (I recommend at least 100) and compare the yields to determine the profitability of investmentThis should be a good start for your out of state investing and also, if you ever need help analyzing deals I've built a financial model that I help investors with all the time for free.

How does your unit compare with other 3br in the area?
