BRRRR strategy is great for scaling your portfolio and will be a very useful tool after you learn how to master it, it definitely was for me. 

But for now and into the future and based on my lending PM and HM last 30 some years rates stay very consistent.

Curious, are you looking to focus on auctions moving forward or still open to flips/other strategies too?

Would love to hear the community’s perspective on whether DSCR is still the go-to tool for scaling strategies. 

Hope this helps you and gets you thinking about easier consistent closings that do not require budgets or endless cold calling. 

Buy in a market with consistent historical appreciation—typically where there’s limited housing supply, population growth, job creation, good weather, and proximity to a major airport.

I’ve been seeing a lot of momentum from investors using DSCR loans to expand faster than conventional financing allows.Pairing DSCR with bridge loans seems to be helping many keep deals moving without big capital hurdles.Is DSCR part of your scaling strategy this year?

My thought is to start off self managing in 2025 for bonus depreciation against my W2, and then switch in 2026 to MTR so my kids don't feel so neglected (kidding, not kidding :).My focus to start is tax strategy and taking losses against my W2, then with mid term it would be to avoid headache of turnover and focus on light cashflow and holding for appreciation.Was thinking Bradenton FL, PCB or Poconos, so i can reach all fairly quickly from the NE.How difficult is it to switch from STR to MTR and then what are the implications if i did a cost seg in year one and took bonus depreciation, then switched after those 1st year losses? 

Paul, the strategy is a great way to reduce living expenses while building equity and gaining landlord experience.But the numbers look a bit different in 2025 than they did even a few years ago:Purchase prices: Small multifamily properties in Minneapolis/St.
