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!

Since competition is high and inventory is low on Long Island, I recommend BP members try to go direct to seller which is an active form of building an off-market deal list. 

we are setting up two OZ funds and would love to talk about what you've found. one is for land development and is more active the other is passive real estate ownership of extended stay. all are ground up. 

One is focused on real estate and its all military folks and vets (I'm active duty Navy) and the other one is focused on being well rounded, while also building wealth and passive income.

Hi Ryan, I'm a licensed real estate broker in Illinois and also a property manager, and yes, in the state of Illinois, you need to be a licensed real estate broker (to be compliant) in order to manage property owned by others, because property management is considered a form of a real estate activity under Illinois law. 

@Alex Mull as some with experience in both turnkey and all-in active investing, I can tell you the biggest advantage is saving, time, hassle, and some full-service turnkey companies mitigate your risk by doing the upfront renovations and placing qualified residents while the company still owns the house.

Quote from @Nicole Gauthier: Hello everyone,I have an active short term rental based in Houston, TX about 8 minutes from downtown.

As you start closing deals, you will need to reinvest your profits into mailing lists and other scalable activities to grow your business.
