While my husband and his ex make a similar income and do not exchange child support due to us pointing that out in court a couple of years ago, she actively request all financial documents that she possibly can and examines our taxes, etc. 

Quote from @Clint Miller: Seller financing opens up great opportunities for real estate investors, but coming up with the down payment can still be tricky. 

I’m eager to connect with experienced investors and would love any advice or mentorship on getting started, from financing and property selection to management strategies.Looking forward to learning from this community and contributing where I can!

To thrive in real estate investing, you must maintain a firm grip on your finances.

good area to buy. would love to discuss if you are looking for financing options

How did you finance this deal?

Hi,We recently (Aug 2024) bought commercial land of around 2 acres. this was part of bigger commercial lot (around 25 acres) which had AG exemption and so the taxes that they paid was around $20 each year. we received a 'AG ROLLBACK' letter from the appraisal district that starting 2025 tax year, we will be taxed at it market value resulting in additional taxes, interest and possible penalities for 3 prior years.

Also, you didnt mention any financing costs, was this built with cash or do you roll that into your cost of construction?
