Hi @Matt McCurdy, my previous virtual assistant was the best. Unfortunately, I had to let her go due to some issues with my business. However, if you're interested, I can connect you with her. She is very organized, optimistic, and has a can-do attitude. With the lowest rate, I really just want to help her. Let me know if you are interested. Cheers 🍻

Why did the real estate agent bring a ladder to the showing? Because he heard the property had 'high ceilings'! 😂

Hello BP Community,

As a person familiar with real estate investment, I am now trying out a new type of investment in travel. However, similar to understanding the property market, I require assistance when it comes to discovering unfamiliar places.

If you are good at investing and also at traveling, please share what you know. Can you suggest the best places to go for someone who is new to this? When you visit these areas, do you like to discover them by yourself or with a guide leading the way?

I am interested in the concept of employing a tour guide to enhance my journey. Does anyone have stories of positive experiences or advice on how to locate trustworthy guides?

Looking forward to tapping into the wisdom of this community!

Best regards,

Ava

Post: Cash or Finance

That's quite the whirlwind of decisions! Given your circumstances, it sounds like a lot to handle all at once. Paying cash for the foster family home seems like a compassionate choice, but if it strains your finances too much, it might be worth considering financing part of it to free up cash for the remodel. Prioritizing the stability of your foster family's housing while also managing your own financial situation is key. Maybe finding a balance between cash and financing could be the best approach here.

You should first make certain every place someone can enter, like doors and windows, are well locked. Then think about putting extra things for safety such as lights that turn on when they sense movement or an alarm system. Make sure there is a person to get your letters and packages, or stop them for some time so it does not look like no one is at the house. Use timers on lights so it seems as if people are inside, and organize someone to take care of the grass outside. Check your home insurance plan to make sure it's good enough for the time when no one is there, and think about getting a property manager if you have concerns about looking after your place during your absence.

People who have invested before usually compare what they might earn later to what they are losing now. For you, choosing will be based on different things such as how steady the area is where your property is, your plans for investing over a long time and the state of your money matters. If you sell "as is," maybe you lose less money now, but if the place could grow in value or you think the property has good future, keep it because this might give more profit later, even when there are problems now. Talking to someone who knows about real estate in your area or a person who gives advice on money can help choose what's right for you. Good luck!

That's awesome you're into real estate at 16.5! Reading about rental properties is a solid start. Maybe try saving up some money, learn about local markets, and network with experienced folks. Internships or part-time gigs in the industry could be cool too. Keep soaking up knowledge, and who knows, you might be flipping houses in no time! 🏡💼

Totally get the hustle. Check out Meetup.com or hit up local business groups. Social media's another goldmine for finance meetups. Downtown's usually buzzing with these things.

Good luck growing that network! 🚀💰
