As I understand the 50% rule, they are not cash flowing well, but they are appreciating given the Oak Harbor market and the growing Naval Air Station.I am attracted in particular to Rehabbing and accumulating a good size Buy and Hold portfolio.

Looking at the three different strategies, buy and hold looks like the most feasible, but I have to say, flipping and wholesaling certainly look attractive.

I actually think this will attract tiny home and higher-end mobile home interest.3) Baby boomers forced to physically downsizeMobility and health changes force some to move to easier units.

@Jessica DegaIn regards to goal setting and philosophy, what attracts you to raw land? 

Abou;I have experience in buying distress 8 unit with two tenets.The 1st thing I did was to visit each unit make detailed notes as to what was needed to bring that apartment back to life to attract the higher end renter.Than, inspected the foundation and the roof, attic, common areas, went to court house looked up records on property, spoke to building inspector,They usually have some inside info on things that nobody else has.While doing the above, find out what is market rent is, this will help determined cash flow after repairs.What I did to get renters in, as soon as I finished remodeling an apartment I started advertising for rent with a lower rent rate then others in the market, the idea is to get her fixed up and all unites occupied, as soon as that happens you can start raising the rent. 

What you guys need to do is sit down and see what attracts you to real estate investing, where you want to get to, and how you want to get there.  

I've saved up a pretty good junk of change and being only 23 I'm very attracted to purchasing a good business .

But outside the training KW seems to attract certain agents that don't mind telling you their tricks to getting new business.

(I'm new to the landlord thing, as I think I've stated in other posts some time back)Funny - When I'm not working in that place with its god-awful wooly dog odor, I feel like being lenient toward them; then when I go back in there to work some more, I get angry again and wanna go after their wallet!

I think that the type of tenant that would be attracted to heat and hot water included in rent are the ones that have unpaid utility bills and can't get them in they're own name, and the ones for whom an unexpectedly large utility bill would be a financial burden.
