Quote from @Marc Zak: In the market where I live (San Diego), appreciation has been strong and many predict it will continue to appreciate in the long term.However, with current interest rates (6% at best) and property tax (2%), the annual cost burden is 8%.Am I correct in saying that appreciation has to be above 8% annually (plus whatever my maintenance and vacancy costs are) for me to make any money in this scenario if the property is cash flow neutral?

I’m also new to San Antonio (investing from out of state) and share your enthusiasm for diving into real estate.

I have a building on the outskirts of San Antonio, but it is considered San Antonio as far as a physical address.

I have some family in San Antonio and grew up visiting often.

I am a real estate agent, here in San Antonio, Texas and I specialize in finding pocket listings for investors.Best Regards,B.

I’m currently leading a luxury condo project in Cabo San Lucas and looking to expand my knowledge in real estate syndication.I’d love to hear from experienced professionals about:✅ Best practices for structuring a successful syndicate✅ Key strategies for raising capital effectively✅ Navigating the legal and financial aspects of syndication✅ Lessons learned from successful (or even challenging) syndication experiencesI’m here to learn and connect with like-minded individuals who have expertise in this area.

.🔹 Airbnb is Facing Increasing Restrictions:New York City has implemented strict rules requiring hosts to register and be physically present, effectively banning many short-term rentals.Dallas and Atlanta have passed zoning laws banning short-term rentals in residential areas.California cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles are ramping up enforcement with hefty fines for non-compliant listings.🔹 Co-Living is Gaining Legal Ground:Colorado eliminated all restrictions on the number of unrelated adults living together statewide as of July 1, 2024, marking a major victory for co-living advocates.This week, Jacksonville Municipal Court ruled in favor of PadSplit, voiding citations for “illegal boarding houses” on constitutional and fair housing grounds.Cities like all over like Washington D.C. are considering zoning reforms to allow more co-living developments as an answer to the housing crisis.As Airbnb restrictions tighten, co-living is emerging as a scalable and legally sound alternative that balances affordability, tenant stability, and community needs.

Hi, I just moved to San Diego and started real estate investing last year.

My wife's grandmother passed away two years ago, and we still have her house in San Gabriel, CA.
