    Great video! I’ve decided I’m going to sell a property this year for the same reason. The mental drain from a property plus less than stellar performance is enough to say goodbye to free up mental focus on other investments. Thanks for sharing a 360 view!

    I sold a property that I had been fixing up to airbnb, sometimes it's about the money. I had done a cash out refi 4 months before and the value skyrocketed in the area. Walked away with 70k after paying off that new refi

    I had a feeling this video was going to pop-up. With the previous videos with you visiting properties to check on issues, I had a sneaking suspicion that you were looking to reduce opex and cut the fat. I just didn't think this video would come so soon....but it's good to see you going through such an exercise and sharing with others. I have a feeling more videos are going to be about cutting costs and where people can save money and increase income.

    When you partner on a property how do you structure the deal between you two. How do you go about splitting profits or get paid and how much do you bank to take care of property. Can you do a video breaking down a partner deal on a property.

    Thanks for posting this Rob. Im on the fence for an STR purchased 2 yrs ago - 2 doors over from my little cash cow Airbnb, but I don't love the new one. Bought for 240k, 75k rehab, refi'd for $360k @ 3.25, can cashflow (net) 4-5k per mo, but I'm just not inspired by it. Its in a quickly appreciating area and has a separate buildable R2 lot, so i coule build 3 more units. House with lot is on the market for 500k and I was about to list lot for 250k. I can cash out tax free as a primary, or hold and build it out, and just leverage it. Id feel relieved to sell it now, but know I'll regret it in 5 yrs. Advice anyone??

      Say the market price in the area is 250K. And say it takes 75K to renovate with current costs. Say it takes 3 months to repair and 3 months to sell.
      If I get to buy the house for 150K, and then I spend 75K on renovation, 12K on interests (for 100K loan), my margin is 13K. 13K over 6 months of hard work is not making sense.
      And 2) how do you even find 150K house when the market price is 250K.
      3) how much time one has to spend managing these contractors?

      @@bvssrsguntur6338 I think the problem is your acquisition is too high. You should try foreclosures they will be much cheaper. I bought one in the Midwest for 34,000$ needs a lot of work. So far I’ve put about $100,000 and the sales in that town are 200,000$ average.

    Hi robilt. For us there’s a bit of a jam to doing str. First our city Vancouver Canada frowns upon str s and puts rules in place that limit what we can do with str s so our system points us in the direction of ltr s also our rental market is crazy high priced. We are renting out our basement suite for $2800/month as a ltr. We could probably get more money for a str but rules about str s in Vancouver narrow it down to who can host and our weather is not great all year round so the visitors could be a limiting factor in the winter time ……

      First of all, no I don't lol.
      Secondly, I do have a mentorship program and it's dope. My students kill it and it's a mega-valuable place to be. I was just literally on a call 5 minutes ago where I negotiated a seller financed deal at 5% down, 2-3% interest-and then handed it to a student. And by the way, I did this in front of the whole group so they could actually learn how to go out and hunt their own deals.
      Lastly, my best content and education is free. So enjoy. Or don't. Either way, you're welcome.
