Growing quickly should be the least of your concerns. It's too easy to end up with a big portfolio of money losing crapboxes. Take your time and buy quality properties.

If you're concerned about getting quality tenants, buy quality properties. Cheap crapboxes attract undesirable tenants with higher maintenance and vacancy.

Hilarious. You’re offering a “1% annual fixed return.” Then only “10-20% of future appreciation.” You’re basically asking someone to buy you a $1.5M home for free. That’s a creative strategy all right.

The best alternative is to not buy cheap, crapbox properties in the midwest that will attract an undesirable tenant base.
