They make their money off of real estate agents, but real estate agents are the worst people to make money off because they are highly unreliable and in and out of the business when the market changes.Their target should be the consumer with higher levels that they can subscribe too for data, since Zillow is linked to the MLS now which makes their data somewhere more reliable.

Focus on smaller single-family homes, condos with low HOA fees, or multi-family properties in these regions, and build a reliable local team of agents, property managers, and other professionals to ensure a smooth investing experience.

Agreed... depends on your skill level.. if you have no experience at real estate other than maybe buying your personal resi.. and want to venture into this I can't see how the course would not be a good use of funds.if you have 20 years as an experienced investor or real estate broker then the course maybe is not needed.. but the contacts I am sure are worth every penny..  

And as I explained earlier, your investment is protected by real property, so your risk is extremely low. 

I was thinking of starting a rent increase for my 1 bedroom tenant voucher due it being low and well under fair market value(Based on  hud and zip code) but my tenant is in the process of having a caretaker for her disability and getting approved for a two bedroom voucher.

Appreciation in most Sec8 neighborhoods is very low so it’s a cash flow play.- I would highly suggest you plan on using a property management company.

I’m not sure if this is for you, but...If you’re serious about leveling up your real estate game in 2024, there’s no reason not to try this.

In my market, which is a fairly economical place to build, I am friends with full time builders that are in their properties about $150k/door for construction level finishes.  

These range low 500s to the mid 600s.  

Safe to say that many punters who invested in low cap rate syndication deals, especially during the peak of the hype, are getting schlonged right now.
