The average life of large corporations, like those on the S&P 500, is only 18 years and falling.

I want to be able to send and receive customized docs and signatures in a secure and simple way for remote onboarding of tenants without ever having to wait for the mail or printing out multiple copies again.Currently using Baselane for banking, rent collection, and bookkeeping but it falls short on the tenant record features at the moment. 

Talk to a local realtor who works with investors to see if $2600 is realistic for rent and who you'd be marketing to-likely a smaller tenant pool.Most people who rent fall into different categories-those who are just starting out and saving to buy their own home, those who move around and buying doesn't make sense and those who will never buy a home (either can't save the down payment, can't get approved for a mortgage or plain and simple don't want the responsibility of owning a home). 

How about a management company to handle all these for liability purposes.If we decide to go with a series LLC structure for our real estate investing, where should our management company (to deal with tenants, manage rent, deals with expenses, etc) will fall into?

While most of this year has been a challenge, this fall is looking far better in the Smokies, at least for the properties that we manage. 

There are so many major dominoes to fall in 2024, that any of them will create buying/selling opportunities. 

You always want to make sure your bidding on 1st lien( usually the mortgage) because then "normally" any other liens are not your responsibility and fall off from your responsibility(they can make a claim on any excess proceeds from the auction sale).If your title search shows the 2nd lien being foreclosed on, well now your caught in the middle.

However if you only invest it in training, then at the end you have lost $50,000 and still don't own anything.There are a lot less inexpensive ways to learn about real estate in my opinion.Don't fall for any high pressure techniques from any guru.....the typical scenario is to go to a free 2-3 hour training session. 

I wanted to know if anyone has some great strategies for using seller financing as a primary revenue-generating strategy or if there's any pit falls I should look out for.

Being that I am do not in incorporated Palm Springs, I do not fall under the city's short term rental regulations.
