Any advice is greatly appreciated :)Get to know one developer socially that you get along with well.Share your interest in the business.Seriously, meet for a coffee seems really (W2)....probably isn't the best thing.If you are (W2) your wage slave hours might conflict with the business hours of your intended teacher.But seriously, meet for a coffee with your carpenter, landscaper and close friends.I think the best way to learn is to hang out together as friends with a mutual interest, but if you are (W2)-ing all day...that leaves no hang out time.Go to a 2.5 hour lunch on a moments notice, hang out together in the office, go look at sites together....What is a finance professional--a lender, a CFO, an accountant, a spreadsheet guy running calcs, a statistician, etc???

Because I also own and buy actively, I also have the proven vendors that further save my clients money from insurance, landscaping, pest control, pool care, and handymen/hvac/plumbing/electrical.With that said, I’ll send you those properties today per our phone consultation @James Thompson and we’ll be sure you get your 1031 funds allocated smoothly and into great STRs 👍

Biggest hurdle might be that for last 14 years I feel I have struggled financially owning a lawncare and landscaping business.

Assume tenants pay all utilities except common electric and water and landscaping is minimal.

I will definitely be following the political landscape there. 

I added extended driveway, RV parking, back yard landscaping w/ covered patio, shiplap on two interior walls, and painted accent walls in every room.

Here's why:Philadelphia offers a diverse real estate landscape with a mix of residential, multifamily, and commercial properties.

The landscape wasn't in good shape so had that redone.
