I can tell by your language that you're fairly well versed in the basic financing for real estate.

I have some web design skills (I'm an engineer, so easy to learn new programming languages) and I'm currently testing my new system to manage the tenants.

You'll actually learn useful stuff and won't be set back 5 years with an upsell.There's a Summit in Oakland CA at the end of August where there's a ton of speakers that post on BP, but it's not an official BP event.

So I learned the business of Construction through flipping as far as how it should look, fair pricing, the language of contracts, but with Nate I learned the strategic strategy and ready to get started building my portfolio! 

I am learning "lingo", for me it is like a foreign language.  

Any way to delay the official sale to keep taxes low while still maintaining a contract to buy? 

A post on the official Norada Capital Management website from 2022 (attached screenshots in addendum), boldly states the following:“Norada Capital Management offers investors opportunities to invest in Promissory Notes with fixed rates of return ranging from 12% up to 17.5% per year,” ( Link ).In explaining the use of proceeds from the promissory notes—specifically the entities Norada Capital Management, a private equity firm, supposedly lends to in order to generate these high annual rates, the company states that:“Three of those five categories that our company invests in as a private equity firm include e-commerce-based businesses very lucrative area, especially if you’re in the right area of e-commerce.

YOu should ask him why that would be the case and for some type of supporting language to back up his claim.

However, government officials, pandering to populist sentiment, hold landlords to standards and responsibilities far more restrictive than any other business.  

Something I noticed that is making me doubt about making an official offer is that it seems to be in an area with high crime.
