Why Affordable Housing for me? 🧵 My birth mother was 16 when she had me. We lived in a shitty apartment, disconnected, disenfranchised and ignorant of how life worked. When I was 1, I rolled off the bed onto a floor heater and suffered 2nd degree burns.

Flipping houses ( capital gain strategy) is not for the faint of heart. It takes a lot of energy to find deals, add value, sell them and pay the taxes. And once it's over, you start again. Just my 2 cents, flipped 7 houses before realizing this. #recoveringFlipper

@CaseyMericle Typically the rule is that no one LP can have more that 20% equity without signing on the debt. Our typical workaround is either restrict investors investment to 20% or Split investment within their household - husband 20% /wife 20% individual 20% / entity 20%

I bought my first 8-unit off the MLS😮 💥 It’s a great place to look for your first “larger” MF deal. 1 - 9/10 Realtors don’t understand the income approach. 2 - Small mom-and-pop owners still use Realtors. 3 - Most large buyers in your market aren’t sourcing deals from MLS

It's more than just a mailbox upgrade. I believe everyone deserves a safe, comfortable, and honorable place to call home.

In 2013 I bought my first house, a live-work unit downtown Greenville. The only way I was truly able to afford it was renting out the down stairs commercial unit. Years later while listening to RE Podcast I learned that I had performed what the kids were calling “House Hack”
