Emerging Trends**: Like many cities, Mobile is experiencing shifts in consumer behavior and workplace dynamics, influencing commercial real estate trends.

I called the Austin branch of  Consumer Protection Division of the AG's office and they said that they have no complaints about the company.

I have 200k in liquid cash (yes this was self earned thru 5yrs of sacrifices and hard work 12-16hr days 7days a week with maybe a month in the summers as break to see family back home, but i dont want to do this forever) My dad and I want to be partners going into these deals. there is a new construction 4plex i am looking to build which will be 775k that i will put 25% down (half me half my dad) which will cash flow net 2k /mo if i rent it out LT (COC of 11% which isnt bad and apparently my agent who recently worked on a neighboring new build said the appraisal after its built is mid/high 800s, also my plan is after 2yrs to REFI at lower rate). i am considering to have 2 of the units as MTR for local nurses or construction crews which of course can increase profits much more. i also have a 3acre property that i am thinking to build small 2bd 1ba cabins and use as STR/MTR/LTR. but i am also wanting to do do STR as i love the concept and have watched Robuilt everyday learning from him. i am looking to buy land in a mountain/ski town (189k 10acres) and build a beautiful aframe and use as a STR. all these property ideas are close by to me so i will have a close look on them and will manage myself. i have just been consuming knowledge endlessly the last 3months in preparation for this decision.but as you can see my head is all over and im unsure what the correct first step will be. i have many goals and visions of what i want to do i just need some help making a correct first decision on those who are far more experienced than me in this real estate space so i use my capital in the most efficient way. i understand real estate is long game and i have no issues with that but i would like to at a minimum cashflow 100k a month by the time im 30. this is a big goal but i have 8yrs to do this. thank you for your help i look forward to the responses(side note: i am not considering house hacking as i live with my family, this will possibly be an option in the future) 

Cold calling is time consuming but very effective.

Maybe in a chapter 11 you can restructure but that's not for consumer debt.

Ever since the quick rebound, institutions are adding stabilized properties to their assets that have tenants that have weathered previous economic turmoil.One way the big boy institutions are trying to mitigate risk is by buying properties that performed historically well during challenging economic times.Because *some* DSTs align with that strategy, it gives you an opportunity to shift some of your investment equity into institutional asset classes that would be out of reach for the retail investor with a modest amount of equity to invest.

When I was house hacking, my w2 income was modest, and a lot of folks starting house hacking today have a better w2 income than what I had when I started.I have a friend who's about 12 years younger than me, she's just started her career, and she's always complaining that it's impossible to break into real estate.

My caution to you is it is really time consuming and a fair amount of work.

Moved down to San Antonio from NYC over the Labor Day Weekend (continue to manage a modest portfolio in upstate NY) and hope to get the ball rolling down here.
