Would love to hear more about how you plan to scale up your portfolio and any lessons you’ve learned so far!

I am pretty new myself to real estate investing but my plan is to own many LTRs .

Future enhancements include the planned Silver Line rail alignment with nearby stops, as well as potential commuter bus services, pedestrian paths, and bike lanes.The development benefits from proactive rezoning by the city, transitioning the land from industrial to mixed-use urban development.

Time Commitment - Basically if one of you spend more time on the project than the other they should be compensated for that time.

I would probably work with an attorney in North Carolina (or wherever you live) to do some estate planning since you do have young kids.

I use the TX bookkeeper @Chris Seveney is referring to for my main entity, but I use WaveApps for all my other entities, and they have a free plan, and also a wizard that can help you set up your chart of accounts. 

I position my inspections as 'planning for future repairs/improvements' which mitigates that whole 'he's here to get my security deposit' mindset.And, I would rather have the tenant with me than to have him later claim that something was broken during the inspection.  

The question is mostly a personal financial planning question and it depends on your preference and what balance of risk and access you'd like and would be comfortable with.

- You can buy using FHA 203(k) loan which allows you to finance repairs into the purchase mortgage.If you find you like being a landlord, you can BRRRR a property every year.You can also start BRRRing rentals w/o planning to live in them.

What are your investment plans moving forward?
