Smart guy with the most practical advice, some great books, and he started in California.

While I've been enrolled in an online course, I've found it to be quite costly and not as practical as I'd hoped.I recently discovered BP through a friend, and I'm amazed at the wealth of knowledge and support this community offers.

Main things being population growth and landlording laws.

Laws seem to be loosening up all the time.I get your point about less things to fix assuming someone is using them.

I’m still working on figuring out the best strategies and practices, and I’d love to hear from others who have been through similar experiences or have advice to share.Looking forward to connecting!

Practiced as a lawyer and also had various investments.

IDEALLY, we would like to find a property that has or is capable of being converted into a “mother in law”, “ADU”, “Casita”, or any other separate living quarters in which we could rent out the main portion to a tenant (short term or long term) and then use the separate space as our own for when we come and go with business.

If that's not an option than you'll have to close and serve notice yourself and abide by your local laws.

Finding good deals is nearly impossible with the prices, tenant laws, and taxes working against us.Since you’re considering the Midwest, I’d definitely suggest keeping Detroit on your radar.

The owner of the property I purchased is litigious in that they have filed a number of frivolous law suits in reference to the property.
