This motivation lead me and a business partner to start Raise the Standard Property Management.

That was short lived!

In my opinion this will not lead to long term success - if that is of any interest to you focus on saving up enough to purchase your primary residence.

Also, watch out for any litigation or construction issues that could lead to HOA fee increases down the road.Alternatively, you could consider a good deal on a single-family home or a 2-4 unit property.

Now my main issue is I need a fire detection system in a enclosed back porch that leads up to all three floors, but I don't know what's the minimum I would need to be compliant or that the fire marshall is suggesting what he wants or recommends.

I have personally owned investment property (both long-term and short-term rentals) along the lakeshore.

Start by leveraging what you already have—consider tapping into equity through a HELOC, house hacking again with an FHA loan, or increasing cash flow by converting a unit to a short-term rental.

Hello everyone, I recently became a realtor and I was wanting to get into wholesaling but my broker has said it could lead me into trouble here.

It is normally the real estate that attracts the nuisance tenants which leads some to resort to section 8 believing its a cure all which is the furthest from reality.  

My buyer funnel has never been more full, without me doing any aggressive lead gen.
