I think my next moves may be an out of state duplex and/or a local flip with a realtor friend of mine who has some experience doing it.

My father and I have formed an LLC with another friend to start buying some rentals.

And if you want an extra layer of confidence, find an investor-friendly real estate attorney or a knowledgeable friend who can help dissect the operating agreement.

Establish a relationship with an investment-friendly realtor. 

My friend in Austin was telling me how he once lost track of funds because he used only one main bank account.. that got messy real fast.According to something I read in Forbes, many banks let you label accounts in a more flexible way.

The deal was contingent upon 60 day due diligence and a clean Phase 1 environmental assessment.

For example, you could showcase the family-friendly amenities, outdoor spaces, and stylish interiors all at once, similar to the one shared here (this is a listing photo, so I would recommend you change the text to fit your guests).

A good friend of mine, managed a similar transaction last year: he merged several single-family homes around Florida and exchanged them for a mid-size apartment complex in Chicago.

Unless you have boots on the ground there (friend or family, not the agent), it will be very hard to manage.

It’s my brother and 2 good friends that have some experience. the money lender would be a family member of mine lending out of their self directed IRA so they will be lenient with us.
