For me, it really comes down to living in an apartment that is clean and somewhat modern.  

There is a renewed desire for personal liberty in modern America.

I have a mentor (my grandpa) who lives north of Sacramento, and we have been scouring that area for buy and hold for cash flow for some time with no luck yet.My mentor is older and while he has had out of state properties in the past, he is not familiar with the new OOS market and the modern day advantages technology offers for finding rentals.

Over the past few years I have used Utica and recently American Modern.

Purchase price: $1,199,000 Cash invested: $300,000 Premium, central Atlanta location in a modernized Duplex as a House Hack.

Purchase price: $780,000 Cash invested: $280,000 Sale price: $1,600,000 Distressed sale, fully renovated, modernized and furnished to maximize value.

Then if you need to paint, add light fixtures, new hardware, etc. to modernize an outdated place you’ll spend another $1k-$3k (depending on if you hire help or not).

One 1920s house may have knob and tube wiring and lots of deferred maintenance that will add thousands to your budget compared to a more modernized 1920 home.

If you're looking for a modern accessory or a classic statement piece, Trendifly has the ideal handbag to finish off your outfit.

I see potential in the technology and would like to pick your brain if you have.
