Quote from @Nick Henry: Hi there - I am starting out in real estate investing and am trying to build a portfolio of rentals that can produce enough cash flow for me to eventually leave my job and make real estate my main job.

I or a partner have done at least two of his boot-camps over the years, including his land & commercial property which helped us buy our first three land joint ventures-with-the-sellers a few years ago – never has there been subsequent illegal charges, but I do read thoroughly the agreements and immediately notate in my day-timer the required termination date for any company’s teaser or rebate.Again, I empathize with those who had bad experiences with any company’s or guru’s teasers, but I’d suggest rather than avoiding teasers and rebates, take advantage of them!

Hi Ashley, We have found what works well for us, as well as our clients is to ask them during the on boarding process if they have any preferred contractors.  

Quote from @Nick D.: Would a cash out refi be under commercial terms since the property(s) are under LLC? 

I think your general ethos aligns with the ideas outlined in ULI's incredible book for developers; I definitely recommend: https://a.co/d/2g0bxnxHave you thought about investing out of state?

@Makani Donaldson it all depends on your investment goals.If you buy a Class A rental, it'll usually have negative cashflow, which will be hopefully offset with appreciation and better tenants.If you buy a CLass C or D rental, it should have pretty good cashflow because you may not realize much in appreciation and you'll have a lot more problems finding good tenants.

Hi @Ivan Castanon.

He is going to be factual while also contemplating what is happening behind the scenes without directly calling anyone out before a final resolution comes out.
