A post on recapture.People are concerned about recapture when they cost segregate their improvements and for good reason.Recapture is real, and those deferred taxes will need to be paid.But fear not!

We pride ourselves in keeping the forums positive, helpful, and focused on real estate (please, no politics, religion, etc.).

I have been following the Real Estate Investing industry for a while and just recently decided to put my focus into it and implement a plan I had in mind for years.So I went down to Puerto Vallarta I put together a team of local realtors, brokers, contractors, property managers and a lawyer. 

After years of research and deliberation, my wife and I determined to start our real estate portfolio in 2025.

You should be going to real estate investor meetups to meet other, more experienced investors, instead of looking at markets farther away before you really know what you are doing.

I’m 18 and super interested in real estate.

You purchased $500K in real estate. 

As I see it, the only ways that real estate pays you well in the first 3-5 years is low to no leverage or a strategy that requires more work (short term rental, mid term rental, rent by the room, etc.).  

We've always invested out of state and that is not a real hurdle for us. 

Wow, that’s a tough lesson, but one so many of us in real estate can relate to.
