In a previous post, I discussed the difference in each of the most common cost segregation study approaches.

I don't need confirmation bias, I like different opinions to help challenge what I (or can't) see.The one challenge I'll have moving forward with real estate (rental, commercial or residential) is that I am 100% investment income (LTCG, Dividends and current Rental Income).

While I understand market trends, negotiations, and deal structuring, I know that becoming a successful investor requires a different mindset and skill set.I’m here to learn from those who have been in the trenches—whether it’s flipping, BRRRR, multifamily, or long-term rentals.

All good reading and listening, education is best and if you want to learn you have to ingest as much information as possible.I read many books that helped me, but my go-to is listeining to at least 2hrs of podcast with real examples per day.One very important things that "want-to-be" fails is to understand that real estate has many different specialities, so you have to focus your time in your real project.

The biggest question you need to ask yourself is if you are doing this to afford a property you otherwise couldn’t afford or to save money period, that will lead to very different conclusions about where/if to buy. 

I have several different loan products but my most popular one is the new joint venture product that hasn't been out very long.

From a legal standpoint, sure, it's not much different other than the paperwork and govt red tape.

Hey BP,Looking for some great websites to use to gather information on different markets, especially OOS investing...One of my personal favorites is "City-data.com", which was also suggested to me by a fellow BP investor!

Quote from @Devin James: We’ve slowly been improving our homes the more we’ve built and the more feedback we get from our Buyers2021 – Added 8ft doors throughout the home2022 – Added a new elevation with stone in the front of the home2023 – NO carpet in the bedrooms, LVP throughout the home2024 – Added hurricane impact windows & new color options2025 – Adding Ceiling FansGotta be open to feedback and adjust accordinglyThis can be the difference of your home sitting on the market for 4 months vs 1 month where's the modifications and pictures?

I have been listening to the podcast for a few months now and watching the "Real Estate for Rookies" YouTube show and I've been learning and also reading different books on real-estate investing.
