A lot of land is sold on owner terms..

I spent the last almost 3 years doing my due diligence learning the lay of the land.

Detroit has a lot of real estate investor meetups that you can locate in the events forum here and on meetup dot com.

Start by reading the Ultimate Real Estate Investing Guide: https://www.biggerpockets.com/guides/ultimate-real-estate-investing-guide/introduction2.

A good real estate accountant can save them thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend that they find a tax accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.I would also recommend that they look for a accountant willing to work with them throughout the year, who can help them strategize and who is responsive when they want to know the consequences of the financial decisions they are making throughout the year.Good luck.

@Michael LabudzkiWhat category of commercial real estate are you considering?

I would visit local meetups for real estate investing, and also network with agents in your area that work with a lot of investors.

But I see no reason why this can't be done by someone like Scott, or anyone who is successful in any real estate endeavor.

I am thinking about doing this full time and was wondering if there was a coach/professional i could speak with to give me an honest assessment on my current real estate portfolio?

We have a large piece of land undr contract that we'd like to develop for IOS.
