Nor do RE investing styles! 

I drop them and use a competent local RE agent, who did a great job.   

Exactly if its a hot deal cash just means you beat out the next guy who needs financing does not mean deep discount .. at least in markets were RE is sought after.

any meetups for RE investors in Indy?

probably a wholesale company.. get a second opinion from a local RE agent so you dont get hosed. 

In California there is $800 franchise tax per LLC per year, which discourages a lot of RE investors from getting an LLC.

My wife and I were in analysis paralysis for sure, but then the academy dropped and we were sure we wanted to get into RE, but didn’t know how and this course was WAY cheaper than comps that ultimately just try and sell you a conference that just tries to sell you… on and on plus like you said, we got most of our money back and got to keep the material. 

For my own portfolio I'm focusing on commercial deals and coaching fellow RE investors.

I will tell you he did a great job because very little interior re-work was required - but it was a substantial hit to the Reno budget!

Long-Term takes the least amount of time, Short-Term the most.Unless you have the time & discipline for this, SELL.4) If you sell, would it make sense for you to re-invest in other rental properties?
