I am looking to get into short-term and long-term rentals in particular, but honestly open to all forms of real estate investing. 

So, even with newer construction it happens too.You can give these people an easy out when their lease is coming due, or to end early as long as you feel comfortable with it.

They’re tired, neglected, and usually sitting with a long list of deferred maintenance.

A lot of pain for smaller lenders who bought a lot of properties last 3-5 years.

We’re in the last month of the year, and a lot of investors are trying to wrap up their BRRRR projects before 2025 closes out.Totally understandable — everyone wants clean books going into January.But here’s the thing I see every year:End-of-year BRRRR rush is when the most mistakes get made.People are trying to finish rehab, order final materials, and get a tenant in before the holidays…and they forget to slow down long enough to document the project properly.If you’re closing out a BRRRR right now, here are three things you really want to tighten up before December ends:1.

Always go for quality to last for the long run.

Its pretty long.

In most markets, long term appreciation has always occurred.My last completed value add was up $1m over purchase and value add 3 years after purchase.  

Hey BP community,
Just wrapped comprehensive analysis of Miami's 2026 rental market. Since I know many of you invest in South Florida, figured I'd share the key findings.

Cash Back at Refi ≠ ProfitThis one traps beginners.You pull $30,000 out at the refinance, and suddenly you think you “made” $30,000.You didn’t.That’s debt.You borrowed it.The only reason BRRRR works is because:The asset produces cash flow.The long-term tenant pays down the loan.The equity buffer protects you from downside.You’re leveraging debt into a cash-flowing asset.Not printing money.4.
