If you’re willing to share, it would be helpful to hear:One recent performing note deal (high level only: property type, state, basic numbers).The biggest risk you watch for with performing notes that newer investors often overlook.The goal of this thread is to learn from others’ experience—what’s actually working, what’s not, and how investors are thinking about risk/return with performing notes right now.

Let’s assume we agree in general the property with the better rent growth outlook will have the worse initial cash flow.It then becomes basic math on growth rate on which will have the better cash flow on a long hold.  

First off, I'm not opposed to consulting with an accountant and making sure this is all done the right way, but for now I just want to get a basic organizational structure going. 

If you have a deal under contract, you can post the property photos and basic deal information (no address) and if it's a great deal you'll have 8-10 people asking for more information depending on the area you're in.

Basically a gift from him.

You're basically treading water in Long Beach while paying ~3-4% annually just to be there.Here's what I've seen work: Take that 00k, put down on one cashflowing rental out of state (maybe 20-25% down), then rinse and repeat.

The reason we still feel bullish (not reckless) is that there are several obvious levers the prior operation didn’t really pull: delivery/pickup was not executed well; we’re partnering with owner.com to rebuild the website/app funnel and online presentation (not a plug — just something we believe will move the needle),delivery radius will be supported via Uber drivers (~15 miles),alcohol sales were only 1–3% previously because the old location didn’t have an actual bar and there was basically no signal that they served alcohol (no mixed drinks, no “bar energy”),the new space has a fully remodeled (2007) kitchen/dining, plus a legit outdoor eating area, and we’re reopening there in April.  

So it's less like a curse and more like market forces in action, at least until people wise up (holding my breath starting now).And no it's not just Indy, you could replace Indy with a dozen other cities and it would be basically the same thing.

Originally I was also hoping to find a package that would do more of the property management basics for me, like running ads, screening tenants, collecting rent, collecting e-signatures, etc.What I found after months of looking is that there is no one-size-fits-all platform out there.

Sometimes the numbers are great, sometimes it makes more sense to keep it as accessory space and focus on improvements to the existing duplex.If you want, message me privately with the municipality, address, a few photos, and basic attic dimensions, ceiling heights, stair details, and window sizes.
