@Dave Foster Thanks! Great point on the strategic counsel, and you are right -- the law is the law. 

Currently, I'm looking for a lawyer to help me navigate transferring a title from my parents to me (in SFL).

Does anyone have any recommendations here? When I jump on google or yelp....there are just so many...it's a little overwhelming 0_o

Also, any thoughts on some preliminary questions or filters I should use when evaluating potential lawyers? For example, should they too be a real estate investor?

Thanks! Looking forward to your thoughts!

I'm thinking about turning my SFH into a short-term rental, and I'm curious about what rates everyone is seeing, vacancy rates, seasonality, etc.

From what I can gather 100-250/night during the winter. It's hard for me to tell exactly how booked people are throughout the year...but I know the Canadians love Hollywood and it's always cold there....

 Any intel would be great!

Also, I'd love to grab a coffee (or beer!) if you're up for it.

Hi - I live in New York (originally from Ft.Lauderdale), and I am looking to buy a multi-family investment property back in SE Florida. Does anyone have a CPA that they would recommend? 

Is the right strategy to get a CPA in the area you are investing, or in the area you reside?

Thanks!!!

Also be on the lookout for the tristate BP meetups organized by @Darren Sager.  If I'm correct there should be one in September if not November.

Hi BP Community,

I am living in Manhattan, looking to invest in a buy and hold property in greater New York and/or New Jersey (pretty much anything within 1-2 hours by train from The City) for some passive income.

I'm originally from Ft. Lauderdale, FL, and I hope to build a portfolio down there too. Most of my connections are in South Florida, but I don't yet feel comfortable doing deals down there with such little experience and such a long distance. 

Looking forward to learning and meeting awesome people! I'd love to get together with anyone with similar goals, advice, or jsut for some like-minded conversation.

Real Estate seems so fun! I can't wait to get my hands dirty.

Damn! Just missed this. Any clue as to when the next one will be rolling around?
