Hopefully kept good records of improvements / anything to increase the basis2.

Since I'm not a pigeon forge local, I also don't have a good feel for the appropriate cost of goods and services either.While I don't necessarily suspect anything nefarious from the management company, I don't now that our financial incentives are always well-aligned. 

As well as financial statements.

My plan for this year is improve my credit, get my real estate license (to increase my income on top of my W-2), possibly career transition into the property management space (to learn more), and save as much as possible and learn as much as I can.I’d love to house hack close to home but my area is so expensive it seems like it’d be close to impossible. 

They aren't going to magically improve and start abiding by the lease terms but I think there is definitely a possibility that the situation gets worse.I think that's a good point.

As a contractor and cabinet maker it made much more sense financially to purchase a home with a rental unit and manage the property myself.

I’m drawn to real estate not just for financial freedom but to build a legacy for my family while contributing positively to communities.

Ready to learn, grow and gain financial freedom and generational wealth.

🙌 I love your focus on helping others achieve financial freedom through real estate – that's what it's all about!

Can you believe how much time and information Tax, 1031 exchange, accounting, and financial experts give away here?
