Hi I'm a big fan of Spartan and have 4 properties with them the first dating back to 2019.

Here are five crucial tips to help you stay profitable and avoid costly mistakes:Buy Smart, Not Just Cheap – In today’s market, finding deep discounts is tough, but focusing on properties with value-add potential is key.

I am learning a lot about real estate and want to purchase a rental property in my area.

Does anyone with experience on the island know if there really are properties that cash flow here after all things considered or is this not a good idea?

If you cash out equity in a property, you are "borrowing" that money from the lender.

This would be a joint venture with me offering to just provide a percentage of profits and equity in the property in return.  

I bought a property in October 2024, did a rehab from Nov-Dec 2024 and found a renter in beginning of Feb 2025. 

Finding a property with the appropriate layout is challenging and expensive.

And also not an LLC that's made an election to be treated as a ""C" or "S" corporation.One problem is, you can't get the property out of the corporation without triggering gains if it's appreciated.

I'm looking for an experienced contractor to partner with on my first full flip; I own two properties and have done minor renovations to those properties but this is my first full flip with a full rehab so I want someone with experience to assist as I learn the ropes.
