Starting a property management company with my brother and my dad was a mix of teamwork, trust, and family dinners doubling as business meetings.

With your balance sheet and cash, you can put together creative deals without giving up equity and without using your cash but you are going to need to find a market and product which has 7-8% cap rates.I invest in the northeast, Great Lakes area.Diverse economies with education, healthcare as the back bone and tech as growth.In your area, you’ll have to raise way more capital in the form of equity just to meet DSCR with the banks.

For the office, it is advisable to begin with home office deduction if one meets the requirements of the law.

I believe many of the 2nd homes will be too far or too small to meet their perceived needs.  

Would love to connect and get to know/meet investors on here and form a relationship where we can help each other.Thanks any advice is greatly appreciated!

If you ever want to meet up in Marin and grab a coffee to discuss, let me know. 

I was under contract for a property, and the financing fell through due to the property not meeting the lenders requirements and not being sufficient.The seller is trying to keep the EMD as I have signed and requested the mutual release.

Consolidation needs to cycle, with all infrastructure maturing to fully meet new size and facilitate continued growth.

Fourth: even if the entire deduction is available, it results in much smaller automobile deductions in future years and extra taxable income when you sell the vehicle or trade it in.

I'm sure there are many more experiences where the contractor hasn't fulfilled their scope of work and gotten away with rushing the project to meet the deadline, And, I don't want to be as naive to say that I'm that 1% who can have complete quality/operational control, but I'm confident I can establish a system and hire independent inspectors to review the contractor's work.
