Help, I have a friend who wants to play the stock market and I don't know how to talk him out of it!

I plan to manage the properties myself until it conflicts with my regular job.I would appreciate any advice on these markets to ensure success and connect with local investors.    

We are a massive appreciation market. 

Wayne market? 

I live in a town of about 100k people here in Dothan, AL, so STRs aren’t the most popping market.

Just do thorough research on the local market and have a solid plan for managing the properties remotely.Good luck!

- Run a cost segregation study on this property in 2024 and you might have $100k on line 18...Without diving too deep on this post - If you run this scenario as a real estate professional while materially participating in the property, You'll be able to reduce your's and your spouses taxable income that year... 

My former experience has been with LTR and I'm currently focused on STR in E TN but interested in learning other useful strategies and expanding markets in later deals. 

on the one hand, if you're happy with it, and you believe in this market, and this is what you wanted, great. the fact that you're asking the question shows that you're being thoughtful about it.with that said, it sounds like you're into the deal for almost $90K out of pocket, and so if you asked me if i would put $90K of my hard earned cash into a property to get $175 month, the answer is no. 

How will the new administration effect RE market in overall US market.
