He does quite well investing in the Inland Empire.

The long-term plan is to build a buy and hold empire so I can be with my family more.Anyhow, sorry for the book!

Greek Empire?

Sounds like you are well on your way to adding to your real estate empire!

And with real estate, it's something tangible and each house feels like our empire grows ever so slightly more.

Quit claim deeds only convey that interest one may have in a property, I can quit claim the Empire State building to you.QCDs can cause title problems when used improperly for a transaction, breaking the chain of warranted title.The OPs idea mentioning divorce matters could be instance where you'd find someone interested in selling.

Congrats on your budding empire Anthony.

While we purchase older properties (50 - 120yrs) as that is the inventory of the areas, all of our properties undergo a energy efficiency retrofit ... not merely installing electric baseboards and offloading the task of heating a 100 year old house with no insulation to the tenants.We also inspect our student properties quarterly {students never report issues}, fix any issues and damages as we find them, then bill the tenants immediately for anything for which they are responsible.If you use quality, durable - but not necessarily fancy - materials; have everything spelled out in your lease & house rules; and inspect your properties regularly, student properties can be very rewarding.The focus on the young professionals was based upon the part of the city in which we were looking ... we then renovated those units to be energy efficient, yet retaining some of their Second Empire and Victorian allure.

I want to use this time in between to network and learn as much as I can about flipping houses in Houston so I can maximize my profits and start investing large amounts of money in apartment buildings and build a reputation so I can use investors to start my Empire.

I definitely recommend meeting up in person as a way to grow your network and grow your RE empire!
