There are several properties I have looked at this past month less than $650k that can produce over $100k in rent. 

But none of that pays the mortgage.If you want predictable cash flow, you underwrite deals based only on what the property can realistically produce the day you buy it.

This low amount trapped permits a magnified return on all sources of return going forward.If we go with the premise that this brrrr seems pretty good, then it should be no surprise the investor wants to repeat the process as quick as possible.Note I am not saying he should take overt risks, but reasonable, calculated risks are what successful investors do regularly.

They are no longer a low cost producer.

Kentucky is doing something strange and kind of beautiful right now: we’re stepping off one train (coal) while a whole fleet of new ones—manufacturing, reshoring, logistics, data—are pulling into the station.Two headlines tell that whole story in miniature.Coal: from #1 producer to #7, but still powering the gridKentucky’s coal production fell 14% last year, dropping to 24.3 million tons.

With the preferred financing and not extremely hands off (my son and his team were going to act as PM and do a lot of work), we were only projecting $30k profit).You will be challenged to find flips that produce a good return on the mls.  

But the B class duplex properties in my area (Springfield MO) are priced so they don't cash flow before they're paid off. in other words I have to cover $300-600/month for about 5 years (on a $250K+ properties).The reason I can pay off in 5 years is I have ability to pay large amounts against principal every month (from my regular job income), but I only have 82K for a down payment.Once it's paid off, the property would produce almost 1000$ net cash flow.Are these good numbers or do I need to do things differently?

This deal proves how the right upgrades and strong execution can produce exceptional returns in competitive markets.What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
