Becoming a property owner.The hardest part about this right now is underwriting deals, remaining patient and disciplined.Outside of that, the actual details of managing the property are only hard if you do not have systems in place, delegate responsibility, and don't fully comprehend what physical asset investments require-- capex & opex heavy.

But they are there and have huge views.People want to get rich quick, not sacrifice by living way below their means, working hard, and putting in the many hours of physical sweat to manage and maintain property, or the many hours of due diligence and hard awkward work of truly vetting operators as a “passive” LP.I stay consistent with my personal approach and what I talk about year in and year out.

Being in NY maybe something to do with physical document transportation?

But I've hit the annoyance factor most reach in their 50s when owning rental properties about 20 years sooner.I am at work coordinating inspections and post inspection, was the appraisal done and could you email it to me, this lender gave me a 3.25% rate while you locked me at 4.0% LOL all of this and I haven't even started receiving a dime of cash flow.Illiquidity is the best feature of passive real estate investing, the 2nd feature being diversification (among asset types, exit strategies, sub-strategies, geography, risk, sponsors, etc.) you cannot do this if you are actively managing rentals.When you are 65-75 years old planning your estate, do you want to leave your heirs (who probably don't know or don't want to know anything about real estate) a bunch of physical houses, tenants, property managers, mortgages, online logins, LLCs, etc.

Since the payment was deposited into your account on 1/6/2025, it would typically be considered income for 2025, even though the tenant paid it on 12/31/2024.However, if you use cash-basis accounting (which most landlords do), the key factor is when you physically receive the money, not when it was sent or owed.

I’ve sacrificed a lot of time with my family, my overall physical fitness has diminished as I no longer work out 6 days a week, and my social life is pretty much nonexistent.So, trust me, I’ve had multiple times that I’ve asked, “why am I doing this?”

This is ideal for those taking their first steps in Spain or needing to establish a presence without having a physical office.If the goal is to link an SL with a holding or manage dividends, then yes, it’s essential to ensure the legal structure is well-defined and compliant with the relevant regulations.

Do we focus on flipping, (currently we have actually been trying to do this, but we physically can't find enough contractors in our smaller market <100K population to do that much work).

It doesn't add layers of physical damage coverage or cover things that wouldn't otherwise be covered.

We service the entire coast and consistently plan efficient physical and remote tours encompassing several cities or regions. - Property Management: No STR can be successful without quality cleaners and management.
