An insane increase in lawsuits by individuals looking to target high asset individuals (investors) and extract assets from them by lawsuits.

Just as a heads up as not sure which timeframe of BP podcasts, but before covid you could do a BRRRR and get all your money back out of the deal, today that is typically not the case and you will still have money in the deal - so just wanted to mention that.Lastly, you are way ahead of me and many others already as I cannot swing a hammer :) In my market I believe I can still potentially extract all investment, but after the high LTV REFI, it would have very significant negative cash flow which was not the case for BRRRRs where refi completed prior to 2022. 

Hi Matt, I agree with the comments above I'm sure you've already done this in your research, but I would definitely check the comps and see what you can extract from that.

And that business can certainly be RE -- whether development, rentals, notes, etc, if you have a trusted management team running the business, there are generally ways you can completely extract yourself from the business.Sure, the business could fail, the stock could tank, and you could be left without financial independence, but again, that can happen with govenrment-backed interest-bearing securities as well.

With a C Corp, you have to extract the capital eventually, and the double taxation is a killer, even with the lower flat 21% fed rate at the entity level. 

Our family home is paid off, so my plan was to use any equity we can extract from that as working capital for acquiring properties.

So when you are out and see a place you can instantly extract the sale info on the property run the numbers for you instead of going and using your own your spreadsheets etc.

If you have access to a public website and need to ‘capture’ the data from it to create your database or spreadsheet for your leads (assuming your county doesn’t already offer the information in a spreadsheet format), the keywords you need to learn are “data mining,” “screen scraping”, and “data extraction” (I had never heard of either term to describe capturing info from a website until I went to craigslist and found someone under the ‘services’ section who offered IT services….and explained what I needed.

As with all licensing laws, it is a tool for the government to extract fees.

The study uses data extracted from local recorder, courthouse and tax assessment records to determine whether the purchasers buying foreclosed houses from banks, HUD, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, are owner-occupants or absentee owners using single family homes as rental or vacation properties.
