@Josh LansberryIt’s exciting that you’re ready to take action in the Raleigh/Research Triangle market, an area with strong growth potential.

As a retired tax attorney for HNW and UHNW individuals I can tell you that REITs returns are all over the place and we had clients who would make money from the dividend but see their shares decrease in price so it was not reliable. 

If you're getting started, I'd suggest focusing on single-family homes in growth areas with strong population trends—let me know if you need help finding the right deal!

I use QBO to keep track of my properties and do this for my bookkeeping clients also.

This deal highlights the power of well-executed renovations and a strong partnership in achieving impressive profits.

because we have a strong demand for them and great str laws.The Triangle is visited year-round by travelling professionals in the research, medical, IT, and education space.

I manage my own properties as do my clients; with the electronic resources for screening, rent collection, more - the ROI is greatly improved and you retain control of the property.Hope this helps.

Richmond is a growing market with strong tenant demand from young professionals, families, and college students, depending on the neighborhood.

What I wrote above does not create an attorney/client relationship between us.

Strong performance so far.
