Everything looks good, I’ve been doing 60% 6 Month STR lately and just moved up my minimum sales price to 50k. DOM I just look for less than 120 give or take.

Hope you got that Mohave deal locked up @Frank Hampton

I’ve had this conversation with a couple people in the community already but I have 5 I would tell myself if I could go back a year. 1. Pick one marketing channel. I wish I started with SMS. SMS is cheaper and better if you need/want instant feedback. You’ll have to get good at qualifying leads quickly, but you’ll be talking to sellers day one. Mailing is more expensive and more time intensive upfront but better imo if you work a full time job and only want to work with motivated and qualified leads. 2A. Treat this like a marketing business from the jump. Grow your SMS or Mailer Count If I could go back, i would not self-fund deals but grow my marketing budget. The goal would be to grow sustainably but quicker. – SMS: 5K → 10K → 20K → 50K – Mail: 1K → 2K → 5K 2B. Put your money into marketing before you start funding your own deals. / Use a deal funder This is for 2 reasons: one, you have someone in the space reviewing your deal and two, you keep your own money to grow marketing. Realized this after talking to Clay and another land investor but the goal should be to pour back into the business. With a quick breakdown of self-funding vs land funder. Scenario A: Self-funding – You put $25K into one deal – You make $25K profit Marketing stays the same Scenario B: Put that same $25K into marketing – You scale your outreach from 10k SMS to 20k or 50k – You lock up 2–3 deals – Each deal has the potential to profit ~$25K Now you’re at $50K–$75K instead of $25K. 4. Track your KPIs from Day 1. As someone just getting started I would track KPIs from day 1 even if you’re getting 1 qualified per day. – How many texts = one lead – How many leads = one offer – How many offers = one contract Once you know your ratios, you can plan based on previous experience and make decisions based on facts. I barely started tracking in Nov after doing this almost a year and had to go back and see where my closings came from but no idea how much money it costs per lead. 5. Why everyone says it takes six months to get going.
