Everyone has the right to write about their experience but I would be more inclined to pay attention to the review of someone who has been playing video games for years than the person in your example who purchased their first Xbox with no past experience.

Hello everyone,
Does anyone have a handyman referral for Whatcom county? My properties are east of Bellingham between Everson and Maple Falls. I’m a DIYer who is really needing an extra set of hands for most things. ...

House hacking is the BEST way to get into real estate investing and that's how I personally got started as well too.

Install a sauna or a game room.

What I'm trying to figure out is how to be the person who is sent those deals.

He has been alongside me on the other deals so I’d like to give him equity/skin in the game and I don’t know how else to do itQuote from @Basit Siddiqi: Getting a property with a partner / friend will not help you from getting hosed on taxes.I wouldn't move forward - You mentioned beng a high income earner so your hourly rate is very high.

In today’s competitive real estate market, where inventory is tight and opportunities seem few and far between, many potential buyers are overlooking a game-changing option: renovation loans like the 203(k) and HomeStyle.

Easy to use yourself too HELOC works (there may be some places that do a HELOCs on rental properties)I personally have used a 401k Loan on a few occasions - You're essentially borrowing money from your 401k and paying yourself back (interest goes back into your 401k as opposed to a bank) and if you don't pay your 401k back the loan would simply become a withdraw (maybe some tax penalties, but you could probably finagle a workaround).

I both personally invest in real estate and help others gets started/expand their portfolios in various Midwest/midsouth markets.What I do with my kids: My wife and I have 2 of our rentals that are on the same street, with a home in between them.

That cycle of sourcing, assigning, and reinvesting has been a game changer for me too, and I completely agree—it’s the real estate cheat code most people overlook.Being able to create revenue while also creating opportunities for long-term wealth is the best part of this business, and it’s exactly how I plan to keep growing my portfolio.
