I used the funds to acquire real estate that appreciated signficantly.

I am looking for a more efficient way to keep track of expenses, log receipts (including the actual graphic of the receipt) and seamlessly export expense info for tax time.

I will only get one chance to set my real estate foundation, want to make sure I do it as well as possible without suffering paralysis. 

Upgrades included modernizing interiors, updating plumbing and electrical, and enhancing curb appeal.

For investors who lack knowledge and/or time, want to own physical real estate as part of their portfolio, and want to be as passive as possible on the real estate side of the investment, we've created a great route.  

So if I do a good analysis of the property (including all the costs) and the property generates monthly CF with a DSCR above 1.1, I would be removing a big risk because the numbers add up.

I'm offended that nobody included me in in this conversation.

@Jay Hinrichs Long time man!

If you own property in South Carolina or are considering investing in real estate here, you may have heard of the ATI (Assessable Transfer of Interest) exemption.

When it comes to getting loans, which is pretty important for real estate investors, simple "mistakes" can make it so that you either don't qualify or you may qualify but with a higher interest rate or higher loan fees.
