-Landlords want stable tenants, not weekenders.The MTR model hits the perfect balance between profit and peace of mind.Who else thinks 2025 is the year to scale MTRs?

Splitting the difference is a perfectly valid middle ground too: maybe add a few hundred extra each month, build equity faster, but still keep cash free for opportunities.

People chase “high potential rent” or “perfect ARVs” the same way flippers chase “perfect deals.”

Don’t get stuck trying to make it perfect before you take action.

It positions us perfectly for the future: energy, data centers, industrial expansion, reshoring, automotive jobs, all of it.

Quote from @Elliot Angus: Hey everyone,I’m looking for advice from investors who hit the scaling wall early on.I’m on my third BRRRR and running into a timing issue with capital that I’m sure others here have dealt with.Here’s my situation:All-in on my current BRRRR: $260,000Expected ARV: $325,000A 75% LTV refi will return about $243,000, so I’ll still have around $17,000 tied upI’m not expecting (or looking for) a perfect 100% cash-out.

Repeaters are easy, especially if the repeat is fresh.In a perfect world, appraisal and title get ordered and going. 

Do you want to find a property in a perfect location; your forever home; or will this be the first of many properties. 

Since you’re planning to get started within the next year, this is a perfect time to strengthen a few things: build connections with local investors, attend meetups, follow a couple of markets closely, and start outlining your investing criteria so you know exactly what you want. 

This is a great place to start and learn.I believe with the little we know about your situation, you would be a perfect candidate to look into the "househack'" of a duplex.
