Here's how I do my due diligence:1) Portfolio matching: (takes 30 seconds per deal)a) Have an educated opinion on where I think we are in the real estate cycles (financial and physical market cycles)b) Then and only then do I pick the strategies, capital stack, and specialized asset subclasses that make sense for that opinion.

Anyone that invests should be diving into asset protection and utilizing the strategies we have to protect our properties.

I personally believe political stupidity will win, pressing Fed to be the "sober driver" of the economy, and we could see liquidity being created and throttled simultaneously. 

@Shiloh Lundahl I have come across a few different instances where I have seen an investor utilize lease options in their strategy.

The city's median home price of $859,800 as of August 2023, a 3% increase from the previous year, reflects a market ripe for AI's precision in property valuation and market analysis.In Los Angeles, AI platforms are revolutionizing the investment landscape, offering tailored strategies and accessible opportunities.

Find a different market, and learn different strategies. 

I've learned so much from both of those books as they explain the process and each one provides just a slightly different approach.Book 1 is the current strategy I employ in my investing activities and It can be VERY Profitable.Also learn about, and check out the book, Investing in Real Estate with No (and low) Money Down.

If you can find a property with an ADU and you're willing to live in the ADU, I think that would be the second best strategy here.

ROI would all depend on how good of deal you find and your investment strategy.

I am considering two strategies.
