For us, still in a growth mode, we take action and figure out how to redeploy that equity into other real estate through either cash-out refinancing or selling and 1031! 

@Jose Saladin Purchasing your sister’s home as a live-in rental offers instant equity (~$170K), tax benefits, and landlord experience, making it a solid first step into real estate investing.

My clients are mainly real estate developers, PE funds and individual investors doing syndications and my core skill is in real estate valuation / due diligence across real estate asset classes. 

You might want to talk to a banker and real estate agent before deciding.

Here's my situation:2024:- W2 income: ~ $1M (married filing jointly in CA) LLC profit: $80K (from 2 real estate flips, in NC on spouse's name)Capital loss carryover: $380K (from stocks in 2023)In what cases can my LLC profit be treated as capital gains? 

They can introduce themselves face-to-face with the tenants, change the locks to control the property, get a copy of the lease from the tenant or sign a new one, etc.As for the old PM, it sounds like they owe you a copy of the lease and other paperwork (required by law), undelivered rent and security deposit, etc.I would compile your documentation and file a complaint with the Ohio real estate commission.

.: When I started I moved to where real estate was the cheapest in the country.

A good real estate accountant can save them thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend that they find a tax accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.I would also recommend that they look for a accountant willing to work with them throughout the year, who can help them strategize and who is responsive when they want to know the consequences of the financial decisions they are making throughout the year.Good luck.

I am starting real estate school soon to get my license but here in Florida I was told I can buy as an investor without. 

For example, are you looking for coaching for large multifamily, storage facilities, short-term rentals, mobile home parks, how to scale a single-family portfolio, or any other specific real estate strategy?
