Best regards,Drago Hi,You make an excellent point about the flexibility of private money lending in today’s market.

Especially given the fact that she's a full-time real estate agent, you shouldn't have any issues.I personally like using my calendar (i.e. having clear appointment related to real estate) combined with a simple Excel / Google Spreadsheet as the tracker.

Here are some ideas to get you started:1.Educate Yourself: Start with the basics—read books, listen to podcasts, and watch real estate videos (BiggerPockets is an excellent resource).

Do I need to physically go down to the courthouse and fill a form out through a certain department, and who do I ask for? 

Excellent credit and a 30% downpayment. 

As for the 10% fee for overseeing setup, I understand this is in addition to the cost of hiring someone to physically set everything up.

Petersburg, and Charlotte also offer affordable housing, excellent public amenities, and family-friendly areas.

My guy is about $600 but he tells me the relative age of the system and an excellent estimate of how many more years it has left.

Real estate investing can be a great idea for several reasons:Potential for Appreciation: Over time, properties often increase in value, allowing investors to build wealth through appreciation.Passive Income: Rental properties can provide a steady stream of passive income, helping to cover expenses and generate cash flow.Tax Benefits: Real estate investors may benefit from various tax deductions, such as mortgage interest, property taxes, and depreciation.Inflation Hedge: Real estate tends to keep pace with or outpace inflation, making it a good hedge against rising costs.Leverage Opportunities: Investors can use financing to purchase properties, allowing them to control larger assets with less capital upfront.Portfolio Diversification: Real estate adds diversification to an investment portfolio, potentially reducing overall risk.Tangible Asset: Unlike stocks or bonds, real estate is a physical asset that you can see and manage, providing a sense of security.Control Over Investment: Investors can influence property value and income through renovations, management decisions, and property improvements.Building Equity: As you pay down a mortgage, you build equity in the property, which can be accessed later through refinancing or selling.Community Impact: Investing in real estate can contribute to community development and improvement, positively impacting neighborhoods.These factors make real estate investing an appealing option for many people looking to grow their wealth and secure their financial future.It really comes down to investing in a growing market, in a good neighborhood & building a great team to support you.

Hey @Nicolas Munoz, I've always done it manually using my Excel calculator.
