Six acres in a fast-developing area plus an income-producing remodeled house should be getting some bites, so if you’re not seeing showings after two months, it’s probably less about the property and more about how it’s being marketed and who it’s reaching.Here’s what I’d look at:1.

The problem is even when I know what a property can produce, lenders will use Airdna when there is no rental history. 

It is unlikely you can add enough value to extract all investment or produce a good return for your efforts.Good luckTotally appreciate that perspective, Dan — especially your point about cheap markets.

Hi David, Because the property is qualifying for the DSCR with income, if the asset isn't ready to produce income, the DSCR lenders are unlikely to close until you have a CO (certificate of occupancy). 

That alignment of incentives produces better risk-adjusted returns for everyone involved and dramatically increases the probability of success on the first few large transactions.Once I’ve cut my teeth on several of these alongside proven operators, I’ll have the resume, relationships, and confidence to lead larger deals independently.

I believe for the patient mostly passive RE investor that leveraged RE can do well but1) residential RE is not passive, especially compared to index funds and etfs.2) because non commercial residential prices are near an all time high, interest rate is near high for this century, rents are all time worse compared to costs (per 2 recent studies) that you would be entering RE at a challenging time and a time were most RE will not produce the returns that were easy to achieve prior to 2022.3) RE provides diversification, but may not far exceed the returns from passive options.  

It is currently staffed, and from talking to the owner is producing good cash flow every month.

Keep it legal and ethical, document your pipeline, and iterate until it produces one legit conversation per week.

Hi @Adam HumesFinding a standard, turnkey "buy and hold" that produces solid cash flow from day one is incredibly difficult here.There are always opportunities for a buy and hold to cash flow though these are pocket opportunities.
