I've wasted so much money on courses and I regret it more than anything I've ever done so make sure you're using the capital that you're putting into your business to get an ROI and not diminishing returns. 

@Bennie Smith we get calls from investors all the time looking to "help us" with clients looking to offload their rentals.Funny thing is, most of the time these investors are:1) Wholesalers that will just waste everyone's time with lowball offers2) Flippers also with lowball offers3) Newbies that have no clue of value or have no funds4) Savvy investors looking to fleece our clientsRarely do we get contacted by someone actually looking to "help us".

While yes it can easily be patched and mud back up, if your taking the time to hang new board, defeats the purpose when your filling holes and short cuttings with buckets of mud.

@John Clark here is a good article of what is happening in the Tampa Market https://www.floridarealtors.org/news-media/news-articles/2024/06/sellers-cutting-prices-these-florida-cities?

SO much time and effort wasting on LLC's! 

Why do people like to go that route does it cut down on capital gains?

Obviously cutting into profit.

Given that, I changed to getting pre-cut SIP panes and building myself.

Don’t waste time or money until you figure out this step. 

It’s been an absolute time waste and incredibly frustrating experience to deal with this bank.
