Be it in RE or buying some other type of business.

About to buy a 16 unit complex in Clarksdale, looking for a property manager nearby........anyone???

Hi @Cameron Dasteif I understand your question correctly. you would A. buy a house for $200KB.

Buying in San Diego county at retail is a long term investment.  

We have about 20% as a "down payment," but I assume that avoiding a traditional loan would be the best way to avoid extra fees and costs.Have you ever purchased a home from a family member, and if so, how did you come up with the money? 

My husband and I would like to buy a 3-4 bedroom house single level in either Kissimmee or Davenport area between 400-550K with 15-20%down.

Unless you're buying way below market value I don't see how a $75k rehab creating that lift in rent, but maybe I'm out of touch. $2,500,000 - $1,581,500.00 = $918,500 equity gain.

Due to the run up in the market (and trying our best to buy low), our leveraged asset return currently sits at 38.5%.

And I came up with not really, unless I wanted to pour a bunch of extra money into it.

We have enough capital now to purchase a property and and we are blessed to have capital left over every month as well, which we typically invest in CDs.Here are our current options: 1-Buy a turnkey place that has nothing to do with mom for cash flow of $200-300/month plus potential appreciation, overall ROI of 15-20% 2- Ask mom if she would move closer to us in San Diego, buy a small place here, have zero cashflow but at least we have another property in a great appreciating market and are no longer spending the $800 on her rent3- Buy a place for her in Orlando, same scenario as above but obviously a lesser mortgage since its FL and not CAWe found a great turnkey company we liked so if we do option one I think we will use them, but it just feels like if we do that we will still be tossing away what we currently pay on her rent.
