I am new to the group, real estate investing in general, and trying to learn so that I can take my first step into real estate.

Real Estate is a belly to belly business.

Better to keep rent 5-10% below market, but keep a tenant long-term.If you can handle all this, you MIGHT be ready to be a real estate mogul.Otherwise, you may want to get out of your own way and hire a PMC to manage your property better.Let us know how this goes before you continue dreaming about anything else:)

While I don't know the nuances of the market, I do have a client that's a real estate investor and agent in Phoenix that could probably give you some suggestions.

Hi, I’m a full-time Real Estate Investor and mainly invest in Frederick and Washington counties.

When transferring real estate as a gift, it does not receive a step-up basis, as it does when it has been inherited.

Often, buyers will make the mistake of selecting an already themed home that looks ok in the real estate listing.

Besides that, just wanted to chime in real quick - I'd highly check in with a CPA and I am no tax expert, so wanted to preference that.
