Hey everyone — I'm curious to hear from investors who have been able to grow their rental portfolio quickly.What strategies, financing methods, or partnerships helped you scale fastI’m looking to accelerate my own growth and would love to hear real-world examples or lessons learned. 

I have found that raising private money has been helpful in scaling my business when liquidity is tight.

It works fine for now but it doesn't scale well.I’d like to hear from those of you with five units or more, what tools or systems are you using to stay on top of your finances and monitor your portfolio performance?

Why do you want to scale quickly?

Sounds like you're buying Class A properties which are low-risk, but as you are experiencing, don't cashflow without time or a large down payment.Only ways to scale faster:1) Find partners2) Accept higher risk and invest in Class B or C3) Accept more risk by leveraging more & increasing negative cashflow

Key West has some major players worth reaching out to.Rick Haskins of BuyTheKeys is a well-connected broker.On the development side, the Toppino and Spottswood families are among the most established when it comes to large-scale projects throughout the Keys.

Was it hard to find art that fit the scale, color palette, and mood you were going for?
