@Owen Dashner thanks for the kind words, the "grey hair" generation such as yourself has been instrumental in my progress! 

The DSCR is a financial metric that measures a property's ability to generate enough income to cover its debt obligations.

For example, hotels or short-term rental properties like Airbnb often generate more income than traditional apartments, especially if the location supports it.Entitlements and Approvals: Check whether your project fits within the land’s current zoning (by-right uses) or if it will require variances or rezoning.

That way you could rent out the first property and also generate income from your primary residence as well.  

You can generate reports on your cash flow and actually see how you’re doing.

You’ll start generating cash flow immediately, but the returns might be lower.BRRRR: If you’re willing to be hands-on and can manage renovations, BRRRR offers higher potential returns and helps you recycle your capital.

Now I just stick with a team of VAs that do my calls and lead generation and I handle all of the acquisition and dispo. 

I’m curious about the different strategies agents are using to generate leads.

Any ideas on what I could turn it into to help generate some extra profit?

I get the fact that they want to be compensated for generating the initial inquiry however, wouldn’t they just charge the standard 5% rate?
