Hello, I'm from Toronto and just started my journey to passive RE investment in the US.

A quick look at groups near Camp Pendleton shows plenty of activity from folks seeking housing.

I'd rather just invest in something that would gain value and get deductions through an active business - created for the purpose of tax deductions.

- There's a logical reason when/why activity will pick up...wait for it...

Active syndicators are frequently quoted in news articles or have entire articles written about them in trade and mainstream publications.

Great tools that get updated regularly.I am on the lending side of things and would be happy to hop on a call with you anytime to discuss financial strategies and help answer any questions you may have about nearly any loan product available to help you on your journey, even if they are not products my capital partners offer.We are all here to help you learn and grow.

Hey Bigger Pockets community, I'm just starting out in Step 1 (get educated) on what I want to become a successful career in real estate investment.I also currently run an e-commerce business that is currently completely online, but would benefit from having a brick & mortar storefront, and I had an idea that maybe using the investment capital I'm looking to allocate into real estate into a commercial property my business can operate out of until I decide to sell the property in or rent it out to another business.I am obviously very naive when it comes to the complexity of any good real estate deal (especially commercial VS residential), but I'm hoping to spend as much time learning from everyone here who is on their journey as well.My main concern with the idea of buying commercial to operate my business out of it that I might struggle to rent it out afterwards and that there may likely be depreciation in the commercial real estate market over the next 5 years.I understand there is a lot of nuance depending on the local market but I'm guessing commercial is even less of a "safe" bet than finding a solid residential deal to leverage in some way.

It is an awesome platform and has been so fruitful in my journey in real estate and investing.
