Hi everyone! Just wondering what REA's or REIA's are good to join here in the south florida area? Particularly, Miami?

Any recommendations?

Hi Joe! Sure. I am a realtor here in South Florida and I know some of the bigger volume agents don't want to run around and show rental properties all day. I'd be glad to do that for them! If you are an owner looking to get a property rented or a agent with clients that are looking for a rental, I can do either or!

Let me know if you have further questions.

Hi Everyone!

If anyone has a client that is looking for a rental but don't want to deal with the running around, let me know! I've gotten 3 rentals this year signed and looking for more opportunities.

Thank you!

Are there areas where there are good homes to flip? What do you recommend buying out there? and would it be buy n hold?

Is it too late to invest in the tampa area? It seems like prices are in sync with the market now.

Post: Broker License - to apply or to not apply?

Hi All! 

I am currently a Florida Realtor, mainly using the license to do research investment properties for myself or for my family. (I don't really use it the way other realtor's do to sell and help clients buy). I was wondering what the benefits are for applying for my broker's license?  and why there are brokers working for other brokers? Also, are broker's paying themselves commission if they do purchase/sell a house or are they just deducting it from the purchase price as the commission is taxable?

Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on this!

Hi Everyone! Just starting out investing in real estate  (my goal is to create a portfolio of rentals). Would you say the first step before finding any deal or even researching how to find a deal is speaking with a CPA and Attorney to get everything structured correctly? What was your first step?

Thanks all!
