What I love about Baselane is that it was built BY real estate investors FOR real estate investors so it's really dialed in to what you're going to need in order to prepare your taxes, keep your books up to date and the more operational aspects of being an REI like tenant vetting and processing rent payments.

The sooner you start these conversations, the better prepared you'll be when the right deal comes along.Local professionals can also be an invaluable resource.

We would also be working with them to prepare them for refinance from Day 1.

If you have insights on creative ways to acquire rental properties or storage facility businesses with minimal capital, I’d love to hear from you.

@Colin Ford recommend getting experience with your RI duplex before going OOS.You should DIY manage the unit next door, so you LEARN about property management, the goog, the bad and the ugly.Then you'll be so much better prepared to invest OOS!

That said, depending on your business, you can definitely get creative with tax deductions for your RV or boat.One thought—it’s too bad you’re not considering the RV as your primary residence.

Do not forget to prepare the balance sheet, track distributions etc.

Sometimes I've heard of PMLs doing "creative" financing like this where maybe they do a very short-term loan that can be paid back once you sell the land.

Its always nice to be prepared.

While most investment loans require at least 15-20% down, there are a few creative financing options that allow for less than 10% down:1.
