hello I have been learning a lot about the BRRRR strategy and Its seems like a great way to grow a wealth during the years as my goal is to maximize my capital in a decade from nowa main way if not the biggest to create the highest grow of my money is to have a good appreciation but as I was investigating where is the best market to invest i went to the macro appreciation for the last 3 years and even last year,(the last 10 years been amazing but a lot of bad changes went I the last years for the BRRRR investors such as end of corona, mortgage rate, insurance is some areas, many great years which create a fix now) and the numbers for median property unit were awful between negative to barely increasing (Zillow) so I stopped for a second to think, is the BRRR strategy is still a great way to start investing in 2026, I know there is renovation and force appreciation in the rehab and some places even good cash flow can create  good return on your money but still for looking to create the biggest wealth you need appreciation as a main key (correct me if I'm wrong) so would really appreciate some opinions and thoughts

And yes — the asset can still be used personally by you or your family if you ever choose.The misconception is that buying a property and listing it is “easy.”The reality is that it’s no way to truly maximize profit or generate repeat business.When structured correctly, STR assets can offer:• Higher cash flow than traditional long-term rentals• Flexible exit strategies (sell, refinance, or convert to LTR/MTR)• Accelerated equity growth• Strong tax advantages through depreciation• Demand driven by tourism, business travel, healthcare, and eventsBut the real money is made before you buy: Market and regulation analysis Zoning and municipality compliance Demand drivers, seasonality, and ADR Acquisition pricing and rehab budgeting Operational systems and managementSTR success isn’t luck — it’s strategy, underwriting, and execution.Real estate rewards the educated operator, not the hopeful investor.
