And I will stay in my condo until I can afford to buy a bigger place.However, with high interest rates, I’m reconsidering.

I've decided that finding "deals" in Arizona is unnecessary as there are other markets that one need not search high and low to find something that can produce a decent cash-on-cash return.

All the best, Steven  If you're going to do a partnership or even a joint venture agreement I would highly suggest using a competent lawyer to draft your business agreement.

The deduction is optimized as values increase and can potentially offset the entire net investment (including down payment) for high wage earners.

We've sold 65+ homes and the biggest request we get from our Buyers is help with closing costs.Most of our deals we're providing anywhere between $5K-$10K to help Buyers offset the cash requirement to purchase a home.Even in today’s "high" interest rate environment, many Buyers prioritize closing cost assistance over an interest rate buydown.

Look to high-growth markets that stand to benefit from Bessent’s plans, especially areas tied to increased oil production or infrastructure expansion.

To succeed, focus on properties in high-demand neighborhoods like Pecan Grove or Aliana, and ensure your cash flow analysis accounts for high property taxes, potential HOA restrictions, and flood insurance costs.
