Please bare with me if my questions seem basic.

Unfortunately there's a paywall and I'm not a NYT subscriber - does the author recommend making it easier to add housing supply by incentivizing development, or at a bare minimum removing roadblocks to new development?

Gramps barely slides into ‘home’ b/4 late fee.

CRE is about the long haul, I'd say much more than 3 years. 3 years i barely could tie my shoes.

Improvements to be made within the first year after property stabilizes with tenants is guttersThe loan that I am assuming (4.38%) has tremendous value, I will be barely cashflowing, but my return on equity from principal paydown is some 12%+.

There is a big difference between $50 over average top of market rent and $250 over average top of market rent.You can ask whatever you want, and can improve a property as much as you want, but the reality is that the market sets the rent that it will bare and not the landlord.

It's best to have as many doors as possible to lower any potential complications (tenant not paying, maintain, ect.)As of right now I can barely buy one rental property, and that's if I completely wipe out my savings.

There is a very large pool of labor for rehabbing that is skilled at meeting the bare minimum. 7.

I'm typically looking for an absolute bare minimum of annual revenue being 15% of the purchase price, but preferably more like 20%.

I hear of people buying properties that barely cash flow and then occupancy goes down due to market saturation.
