There have been countless threads here on BP by Realtors in and around the Austin market bragging about how many people and companies are leaving California and coming to Austin and how this is so great for Austin and Autin is "the place to be",...etc, etc. 

@Brian CyhaniukMyself and @Jake Fugman have helped countless house hackers in Elgin, Aurora, Joliet, and Chicago.

As Bob mentions, there is countless material available to help, but I would include this forum as well.  

Countless times, no matter how much I push for it, they want to do their final walk through a day or two before closing to check the ROC items.

After countless BP podcasts and browsing forums for a few years now, I finally took the plunge and bought my first property!

As an 18 year old new to the game real estate investor should I start a business and put my rental properties under that business for tax benefits and to have a kinda structure to my real estate investing?

Thank you in advance There are countless companies and people on BP pitching this.

I'm unsure why/how this is relevant as I'm a US citizen, with US business/banks/brokerage accounts, and all my finances are in the US, though I do spend a lot of time outside the US.I read this wasn't an issue and even asked ahead of time, but now at the very end they are saying they may deny it, even though I'm probably one of the least risky clients they could take on, and have proven so (with countless uploaded documents).The property is a single family house in IL for $160,000, with downpayment of 25%, better.com gave 2.75% loan for 30 years of $120,000.My income is $120-180k+ each year, with assets over $1.5M+.

What helped me was spending countless hours outside of school reading books about multifamily syndications, networking with active real estate investors, and joining mentoring programs and groups.

Over the past year we have spent countless hours learning and educating ourselves with Fortune Builders.
