Biggest things you’ll want your cpa to guide you through;Material participation- there’s three tests; 500 hours; 100 hours and more than anyone else’s time, and substantially all the activity.

Hopefully you're still active on here!

A lot of people are giving you advice without enough context as to what you would like to do other than get a higher than 3% cash on cash return and other than only putting down 20% - 30% as a down payment.Something that is important to know to give proper suggestions is what you want the investment to do for you and how active you want to be in the investment.In general, the more active you are, the higher your return, the less active you are, the lower the return because you pay for others to do that work for you.

Orlando has a very active real estate investing community with many meetups for different niches.

My Canadian partners and I bought a Class B 144 unit in Houston, Texas for 77k/door and we’re actively looking for another similar deal.

I’m an active agent with one current listing and three more hitting the market in March.

We're an appreciation market, not as much of a cash flow market here, unless you're putting a large down payment or actively managing STR's.Buying out-of-state can get you more cash flow, but the tradeoff is less appreciation (usually), and cash flow can be eaten up by maintenance and expenses.

I know that a QOF can invest directly in real estate, but I’m particularly interested in the QOZB structure, since it allows for active business operations and working capital flexibility.For those who have set up a QOZB:How did you structure it in relation to your QOF?

I've had a BiggerPockets account for a little while but wasn't active at all in the past.

Plenty of active investors here who'd be happy to share insights and experiences.Looking forward to connecting and hearing more about your plans in Phoenix!
