Is it enough to pay taxes, ins, maint. property man fees, maybe a vacancy or two, sounds easy "just buy a SFH for a rental" it can work out but you better have $$$$ ready to throw at the problems that arise.



Where do you get your info from?? Unless he's buying a dwelling worth close to a million replacement cost on the beach this is WAYYYY off.

I like to hustle, have many jobs/hats going at once...I think the next area of expansion will be the mountains around NC/VA/TN...mainly NC it seems, Covid, endless 'canes, blazing hot summers, people tired of rebuilding, plus WFH (anywhere) option "may" drive a shift to the Blue Ridge & Smokies. Going up for Thanksgiving to look at building a cabin on a mountain lot in between Lake Lure/Ashville...Property is already secured..Build to sell? or keep? not sure yet...has a 15 foot spring fed waterfall in the middle of about 4.5 acres...perfect setup for that copper coil device


A Smokey Mountain home with still included? You can't really go wrong, can you.

Half that with homestead, wind mit and four point.



Handy or not there still price of materials and your time.



Buy the cheapest piece of junk in a nicest neighborhood and remodel.

For mark our words you can never change your tax base.



If your liquid by a rental in town and place some in market, annuities or IRAs.



Better have a good capital reserve

to plan for any contingency on rentals.


are you sure its 4k? because shit Im paying 5k inside the Sanctuary

I feel like the cannabis train passed me by last year. The legalization has been slow and patchy. Maybe there's still time to find the future Phillip Morris of weed.

you just missed out on ATT in the $26 range. Was about to buy another house when the market went full retard on pricing (concrete rectangle houses on beachside are now $450k lol) what a joke. dropped about 250k into ATT which will give me about $20k a year in dividends

That's a solid investment. Earlier in the pandemic I put a bunch in a stock ( well ETF ) called USAA high income which has about 8% yeilds and is actually a bunch of solid utility & telecom type companies, and it's done quite well! I was in the same mindset of maybe buying bigger house, or investment property, but I just didn't think the housing market was acting right, seemed overvalued. Since then some of the properties I looked at are still for sale and actually have done many price cuts, and I hear chatter about expecting lots of foreclosures early next year after forebarence ends?

get up early and go surf - it'll make that hangover go away and/or make the workday more tolerable :)

theres going to be a lot of foreclosures on beachside everyone is neck deep in loans / mortgages. I know 3 people already who found it "cheaper" to declare bankruptcy than pay off 30k+ credit card debt with 15%+ interest because they didnt want to change their spending habits at the beginning / through, of / a the pandemic.



people think we are going to go back to normal and they laugh at me because ive told them we are in a middle of a recession and once we beat this pandemic (my colleagues think its going to be 2022) we will still have to deal with a recession

my biggest problem is the realtors that have created the inflated price around here. 100% car salesmen. great disdain for them
