I've got a list of about forty addresses I'm interested in for my own land reasons, and a neighbor keeps telling me I should be handing the house-shaped ones to a buyer he knows.…
I signed up for accounting software in January because everyone said get your books right from the start. I have one duplex. Thirty day trial. Day one I connected the bank. Day tw…
Small mixed-use building, two retail bays and four apartments over. Seller had a pre-listing inspection done six weeks before I got there, 38 pages, photos, a roof section that re…
Sold nine acres I'd held for a while, gain is about $41k. Small money by the standards of this room, I know. The tract next to it is in a designated zone and the 2025 law added en…
Someone told me opportunity zone funds start at 250,000 and someone else said there are ones you can get into for 25,000. Both can't be the general rule. I'm also unclear on wheth…
I hold land and long rentals and I don't normally sell services. This one came out of a favor. Someone I've known for years bought six units in a mid-size college market over two…
Portfolio is 12 listings across two markets. Eight in my home city, four in a beach town 90 minutes out. Average gross per listing is around $62k, I'm at 18% on ten of them and 15…
I'm not investing yet, I'm just trying to learn how private money actually moves before I put any of mine anywhere. Someone here told me a while back that the best thing you can a…
Numbers first, because the whole thing was a numbers error and I want it visible. I priced 3D walkthroughs at $220 for anything under 3,000 square feet. Camera and case ran $3,400…
I took over management on a small building and the previous owner sent me a folder of the listing photos from the sale. They're good, way better than anything I'd shoot on my phon…
Closing a 3/1 in a working class suburb next week. Purchase 168k, rehab budget 52k, ARV I'm underwriting at 285k. My hard money lender does 85% of purchase and 100% of rehab, but…
I'm partway through getting my salesperson license and a contractor I know needs $55k for a rehab reserve on a duplex he's buying. His lender is covering purchase and some of the…
Six sales a year, average around $340k. Listing side runs me about 2.5%, call it $8,500 a sale, $51k a year going out the door. That's a full renovation budget on one of my smalle…
This is the tail risk I'd written down and priced at zero. 140 certificates, mostly small residential, spread over four counties. 131 redeemed and the book earned $61k of interest…
The thing that finally paid me, after six months of research and no deals, was a contract I never closed. The target: houses built between 1988 and 1999, over 5,000 square feet, s…
Finished a full gut on a 1920s two bed bungalow for a client, $118k of work, closed out the final inspection three weeks ago. He was going to sell. Now he wants to furnish it and…
An owner two towns over has a three-bedroom that's been sitting empty since her mother passed. She wants it on Airbnb and wants me to run it at 20%. I've done long-term units for…
A wholesaler I know from a land deal sent me a single family contract last week and asked if I could find the buyer. He sent 22 photos, a walkthrough video, and his repair number.…
I hold about 30 acres of raw ground at the edge of a metro that got hit hard by the delivery wave. Three projects within two miles of me are either paused or dead, and the pipelin…
A few deals in and I am hitting the ceiling on leads that come from people I already know. So the next question is who runs the paid side. The case for doing it myself: the budget…
