@Lisa Donaldson

I'm also based in Singapore. Currently trying to close on a property in Atlanta. I'd like to know more about signing loan docs at the embassy. Does this avoid the need for a POA?

Keen for coffee?

Thanks

Luke

I’m about to close on my first property in Atlanta. Have another in contract. Working with an awesome team that keep share the risk. Doing all this while based in Singapore and traveling across EMEA&APAC.

I’m new to this industry and learning along the way. Happy to share what I’ve learned.

Keen for kopi?

@Brandi Graham

I’m new here as well. As you can see from the many responses, many people are willing to give great advice free of charge.

I’ve gained knowledge from BP, podcasts, and reaching out to the RE community.

Should close on my first deal next week.

The best learning I’ve gained is by buying and taking action. Learning along the way!

Good luck!

How’s this working out for you? I just had my initial call. $10k for services.  Sticker shock for sure. 

Any  CPAs out there looking to connect? Please drop me a note. 

Thanks

Hi all ... just started working with Wealthability about 2 months ago. Their goal is to reduce my taxes by 50% this year and get it to zero over 3 years. One key was to classify me as a "real estate professional" because that allows you to offset your ACTIVE income with the PASSIVE losses from the real estate. They're currently reviewing my entities for additional tax savings. Tom's philosophy in general is to figure out how to deduct EVERYTHING. It was a significant investment upfront but I expect to get that back in tax savings in year 1 and then everything moving forward will be gravy. While not exclusively focused on real estate, their "specialty" is real estate. I know a doctor who's been working with them; he's a passive investor with HUGE active income; Wealthabilty helped him figure out how to leverage the real estate depreciation to reduce his taxes.

Hope that helps.

How do I find a rehab contractor that wants to give me the time of day? I'm brand new. Investing from overseas. I cannot seem to get anyone to be interested in my one single little job... Thanks!
