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.

You all stay safe.

Class C transitioning to Class B: more renovated homes, higher income tenants and homeowners moving in, nice cafes, shops, restaurants, coffee shops opening up.An extreme example of Class C to B is in San Francisco - when I was a kid, what was not a safe neighborhood and had lower income people, is now in high demand and tech workers making $200,000+ are living there and people walking around at night going to restaurants and shop. 

People do dumb stuff every day, but don't expect me to call bed-sheet-sky-diving "safe", because it ain't. 

No off-street parking = not worth doing MTR unless it meets all of the following: super urban area where no parking is the norm, highly desirable area with a ton of MTR demand, super safe part of the city, and has great public transportation (think NYC, Hoboken NJ, etc.)Unless it meets all of the criteria above, I pass on those opportunities because my MTR will be eliminating the many people that travel with their vehicles.

Most foreign buyers are high net worth individuals who want to park their money there in a safe haven and they don't need BP.No restrictions apply to American buyers in the countries they'd generally want to buy, including those mentioned by Federico and many other popular countries.When it comes to Spain specifically, some more conservative banks will ask you for a 40% downpayment (that would be the maximum) but that isn't the rule.

Although the property is worth way more than the loan we are needing and the secured collateral lien is really a sure safe bet and some easy money for someone willing to take the chance that isn't in it for anything other than to flip their money for profit/wanting to add to their portfolio, this would be an good opportunity for someone just starting out in real estate investment even.

There is a safe harbor from the IRS at 2 years. 

Then I'll focus on paying off mortgages and making my investments "safe" instead of focusing on growth.

I acknowledged his concerns but was unable to resolve the issue.Since the tenant moved in, I have experienced escalating issues with his behavior, including:Lease Violations:Moving items without permission (furniture, safe, carpet cleaner, TV from his room to another tenant's room).Accumulating boxes in the garage, potentially exceeding the agreed-upon storage space.Installing a security camera in the common living area, which is a direct violation of the lease agreement.Failure to submit a work order for alleged issues with the smart lock, as required by the lease agreement.Behavioral Issues:Aggressive and confrontational communication.Unfounded accusations and personal attacks.Refusal to communicate through agreed-upon channels.Loud and disruptive late-night behavior (banging on the door, kicking the door) due to alleged difficulties with the smart lock, often accompanied by profanity.Harassment of my son, the designated on-site property manager, by making disparaging remarks about me and refusing to cooperate with him.Potential for Neighborhood Disruption: The tenant's late-night outbursts have the potential to disturb neighbors, although no formal complaints have been received.Unreasonable Demands: The tenant unreasonably demands advance notice of my access to the property for storage purposes, despite the prior agreement and my right to access common areas and my own storage spaces.Safety Concerns:While the tenant has not directly threatened us, his actions, including the harassment of my son, have created a concerning and unsafe environment for my son and me.Goal:My ultimate goal at this point is to evict the tenant due to his ongoing lease violations, concerning behavior, the harassment of my son, and the potential for neighborhood disruption.Questions:1.
