Hi All,
Hope everyone is well. So I closed on my first rental property a few months ago. Got a good deal from a family friend who sold because he needed cash for a bigger deal. My question is how do I find and grow my portfolio? Where do I find deals brokers ?

By cash flow you mean profit or total revenue from str?

Hi,
I’m looking at a few properties in Florida for an Airbnb str but I have a dilemma. The houses in my price range don’t come with a pool. In sunny states like Florida would it be hard to rent without a pool ?

Hey guys I’m reaching out because i am thinking about trying to find a private investor to find a flip. My only question is what is a good percentage to cut the investor in on the profit of the sale? 50/50?? Basically i would be lining up all of the contractors for the flip and/or doing some of the work myself i just need the investor to fund the flip.
Thanks in
@kyle mack Usually for the first deal with a certain investor you would want to give them a majority like 70/30. Reason for this is because they don’t know your skills yet( you might be the best flipper ever but they don’t know it yet) they feel like they’re taking the majority of the risk and like to see a higher return so it’s worth the risk. Down the line 50/50 would be an ideal split.

High overall return relative to the cost of the property: how much cash comes in based on what you spent to buy and rehab the property, whether you flip it or hold it as a rental.
High probable value to current market: how much you can potentially rent or sell a property for compared to what it is being sold for.
High potential value for property - how much you can increase the value of the property relative to its current value, whether that's just from fixing it up, changing the use, increasing the sf, etc.
High potential value for future growth relative to current market - how likely it is that the property will increase in value relative to what you paid without any action on your part.
There are many other factors but those are some common ones.
Thank you for this detailed response. Most of the properties on market are not a deal but i heard on podcast so many times you have to make a deal so I want to know which ones have that potential to "make" a deal with after I buy for market value.

Hi All,
Let's say I've identified that Im looking for a certain type of property in a certain area, I start my search and I see all the properties in front of me, what should I look for and say aha this is the one, this is a good deal as oppose to the others? (lets say my strategy is the buy- rent- hold- refinance)
