There's also discussion of intentional inflation, but is there any impact on real estate prices at all?

Hi BiggerPockets community,excited to connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about real estate investing.

Quote from @Akshay Bhaskaran: Me and my wife are Residential Real Estate Investors for the past couple years.

That’s half the cost of Prime’s reduced rate.2nd, like everyone is saying, the cost of setting up and LLC is less than $100… closer to $50… if you just do it yourself through the state (not complicated).3rd, if you want someone to help you draft your operating agreement, hire a local real estate attorney and it will be significantly cheaper than $1660… probably cheaper than $550.4th, if you want someone to do your taxes and help you get your max deductions - talk to a CPA who specializes in real estate and they can review your operating agreement to see if you’re setting yourself up properly, and they can do your regular taxes… and be cheaper than Prime. 5th, a separate CPA can work with you regularly to review your investments and strategies to determine good tax strategies as you look to execute any deals. 6th - don’t lock yourself into a crazy subscription model before you start making money!!!

We accept all applications and in the case of section 8 the only real time we don’t is if the numbers don’t make sense with market rent vs HUD standard.  

Right now real estate is a different ball game.
