To thrive in real estate investing, you must maintain a firm grip on your finances.

Very cool piece of real estate, unfortunately it doesn't even make sense at the $650k asking price.

Right now, I am an aspiring real estate agent specializing in investment properties while also in the process of developing an app!

Hello Bp Community,Im in my 5th year of real estate investing in Pennsylvania.

Welcome to BP - what strategy are you looking to pursue for your first real estate investment?

@Chantelle LewisRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

.: Experts/ Landlords, please let me know your thoughts.First investment property and new to real estate as well.

Something like practicing math homework at home, but with a focus on real estate instead.My pleasure, man.

@Jacob HavlovickBigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Just stating that waiting will also likely make the cost of what you want to buy go up if the last 98 years of real estate data provides the future direction.
