It doesn't help with your tax issue but keeps you in the real estate game with a lot less headaches.

I'm pretty new to the game and would love to get some advice from more experienced investors here!

Should I re evaluate what strategy I should use and maybe look further out in places such as Rochester and BRRR properties out thereHey @Jared Leggett, I know I'm jumping in here late in the game, and I have to admit that I haven't read all the many comments you've gotten, but I wanted to provide what I imagine and glean is a contrary view.It is easy to dunk on NYC for young investors starting out, but if you are a first time homebuyer you can buy a $1M property with $35k down (+ closing costs which can be avoided with seller's concessions).

You’re already ahead of the game—stick with Central Florida, and you’ll crush it!

But if your a W 2 and real estate is how you are planning on retiring by investing that is a completely different lifestyle and motivation and game plan. 

I don't think I need to have that exactly figured out on day 1 of my first rental purchase, I need to get into the game. 

Hi All, I am very new to the Real Estate investing game and haven't pulled the trigger on any properties yet.

Nobody will come to your aid, and it truly isnt even worth complaining because honestly this is a game where all that counts is the money.

My mother is very interested in learning more about the power of real estate and how she can get in the game.

I've seen some well-known syndicators brag about having "skin in the game" when the truth is they invest $100,000 in $25 million deal but take home $250,000 or more in fees.
