Quote from @Elealeh Fulmaran: Given your skills and equity, I’d suggest keeping it simple and profitable:BRRRR-lite on SFRs/duplexes — focus on quick, clean rehabs, stabilize, DSCR refi, and repeat.If you prefer fewer tenants — consider small neighborhood retail or industrial with sticky local businesses.Next step: pick one lane, define a clear buy box, and line up financing (HELOC for speed, DSCR for takeout).

That's the key component that is usually missing when I hear other entrepreneurs/investors say they don't like QBO.Something else to keep in mind is your entity structure and how your entities file tax returns.
