It was a tough moment, but it pushed me to focus on preparation and delivering my message with confidence. 

My name is Nick and I'm an agent who has been specializing in investment real estate in Austin since 2018.

It’s tough to know what is happening when you can’t get any responses! 

I ended up hiring a local attorney who specialized in landlord-tenant disputes, and while it cost me a bit more upfront, it was worth it to get the situation resolved without additional delays.A close friend of mine also delt with an out-of-state eviction in Michigan last year.

I’ve seen many investor clients use 1031 exchanges effectively.. just be sure to get specialized tax advice.

While there are definitely benefits to running a fund, it's tough to achieve success with funds as a beginner because oftentimes investors are attracted to the track record of the person or team running the fund. 

Also when you are under contract and get condo docs, make sure to read the meeting minutes (for the past year if available) they will indicate if there are any talks of an upcoming special assessment (which you don't want).

I have one that is awesome and smart and specializes in Real Estate tax planning mostly because he is an investor as well so he is really good at what he does.  

Your choice should align with whether your goal is quick resale or long-term rental income, and you should consult lenders who specialize in both DSCR and rehab-friendly options.Best regards, Stevan

Tough for anyone to beat that in residential RE (<5 units).
