So far, we’ve been acquiring small rental properties (mostly owner-financed deals) to rent to Section 8 tenants, generating consistent monthly cash flow.We’re following a simple but powerful model:👉 Buy small units cheap👉 Rent to reliable tenants through the HCV program👉 Scale unit by unit using limited capitalNow I’m preparing to scale into multifamily (8–20 units) and eventually into larger complexes (40+ units).

GENERATING LEADS; 2.

A lot of investors on here, including myself, have used real estate to generate both long-term passive income and short-term cash flow.If you're open to out-of-state investing, there are several markets in the Midwest and Southeast that are beginner-friendly and offer solid returns, especially for single-family homes and small multifamily properties under $300K.

I’m considering a project in collaboration with my sister, who owns rural property outside of Columbus, Ohio, where she also runs a homesteading education non-profit.I’m interested in funding the construction of a dwelling on that land, with the intent that it could be used to support her educational programming, generate income as a short-term rental, and eventually (10+ years) become a part-time residence for my partner and me.While I have some experience with more conventional real estate investments, this venture has a very different purpose and structure, blending family partnership, nonprofit collaboration, and long-term planning.

This enables us to categorize and reconcile transactions efficiently, and then generate detailed reports for each property, giving you clear, organized financial insights.

STRs are a great way to generate income in retirement, especially with the STR tax loophole if you qualify.

I’m in a similar boat and also working on building a portfolio that generates steady cash flow and long-term flexibility.

My current goal is to educate myself for about a year (while saving and working on my credit) and take the necessary steps in order to create generational wealth.

I would forget about growing the portfolio and generational wealth until your husband finds a job and you reduce your credit card debt.Credit card debt has interest rates above 20%, there is a strong case that your rentals are not generating a 20% return.

For years, it was seen as a golden ticket to building wealth and generating significant cash flow.
