He is the best and sells nothing.Your idea makes sense, but as you've seen with regulations, it won't work in practice for a short-term rental.I like @Dan H.'

I’m an CPA working in the audit practice and dreaming about starting a real estate investment path for me an my family.

I have some practical questions:1) How often do you clean the common areas?

Understand the basics of private lendingResearch real estate marketsDetermine your investment strategy and criteria for loans, including:- Amounts- Interest rates- Repayment termsCreate legal documents with a lawyerNetwork with real estate professionalsPerform due diligence on potential borrowers and their projectsBegin with smaller loans to gain experienceMonitor your investments closelyConsider joining a private lending group for additional resourcesStay informed about real estate trends, lending practices, and legal regulations

One guy I worked with...an old friend, actually...was petrified of taking on more debt until he snagged a short-term rental in Austin that practically doubled his monthly cash flow after a few months.Now, let’s not sugarcoat it.

From talking to locals, there's a couple of issues than need to be addressed, some are the non-ecological practices that some of those developers have, unfortunately, our government profits from this investors and allows them to destroy manglers (which are the natural water purifying system of that area) dismantling hectares of mangroves and degraded the habitat of resident and migratory species burying animals alive.There's proof of fecal material floating beneath the city of Tulum, only 20% of the water is sent to the water treatment plant, there's no infrastructure for the exponential growth.The landfills in the middle of the jungle that is leaking hazardous pollutants into the freshwater system and that something that developers won't tell you.I love my country and it would be a disaster for everybody if this place ends up like some other great beaches around the world, that are completely ruined by greedy investors not following the rules.There's no urban or comprehensive master plan, and one of the risks is that Tulum will be like Playa del Carmen is today, overgrown and with environmental devastation.I will advise doing a lot of research before getting something in Tulum, different country, different rules, and practices.

If you catch these at the pre-foreclosure stage as slow pays or initially in default all the better as the bank has less in collection expense.You can still work out a discount but even buying at the payoff it can be profitable depending on the property value.You can practically force a lender to sell as it can fully indemnify them as a full payoff as demanded, continuing with a foreclosure becomes a rather vengeful act by the bank to punish a borrower, they don't want to go there.

that didn't make sense to me that if i have my ira with you then you will put who the owner is but if i don't have it with you you wont' put anything.anyways, she def didnt' give me indication that she exactly knew. maybe i had a bad agent and since i was already skeptical of using a small bank, that def turned me off.at chase my account shows that it's a business account under an llc. i am the manger of llc, the only thing that worried me is that they put me as a the owner of llc. this seemed no diff to me that when you go get an ein, it also puts you the owner of llc. if irs itself can have this limitation in getting the ein, then surely they would understand the limitation of the bank. besides, i have a fully complying operating agreement in which i have a clause that explains while irs ein letter shows me as the owner, in reality it is my ira that is owner and that that there are limitations on irs website when obtaining an ein. i will jsut be adding a similar explanation in my operating agreement about bank acct and have all the supporting documentation in case if it's ever needed. but that's where i am at.i wish this process was simpler/ easier. it is also very frustrating that the custodian doesnt' telll you anything. they all market you can have a checkbook ira but don't really guide you in HOW to do it practically. all these rich ppl are doing it and i doubt they are going through all these hoops. ...

This is an extremely unusual practice, never seen this in 15 years of my investing career.

And even the ones that raise more often only do so several times during the year and many times there is nothing available.So even if you had such a list, it is not really useful in deploying money in the real world.A more practical approach is to see which offerings are currently available and simply scan them to see if they match your criteria or not.
