You need bench strength here - not sales people.

Commercial will be monetized based upon revenue potential's, and fact is affordability in most places is pressing the glass ceiling, or broken above, that affordability measure that will only go higher as median incomes go up. 

@Shawn ParshGreat topic to debate and if you look at this on a graph you can see great disparity right now due to covid and the US printing press of moneyOne of three things is going to happen - either homes become more affordable due to price softening to allow more people to buy a homeWages increase by huge numbersNothing and everyone in generation z gets hosed as they will not be able to buy a home and the rich get richerI can give you my guess on which one of these does not occur

A law enforcement professional once mentioned to me that dealers don't want bad press, they'd prefer to operate in the shadows.There are several Pittsburgh locals on the forum, and I sincerely hope they get on this thread and provide better suggestions.Much respect to you.

I work all 58 counties of CA and use a series of direct mail educational pieces, public speaking, publicity via press releases and articles written for adjudicated publishers (legal newspapers).The mistakes most real estate related services providers make include:1) Soliciting attorneys while new and inexperienced in their profession2) Soliciting before they have researched, studied and mastered applicable laws and procedures for their area of expertise 3) Like newbie posters who post and go 'poof', I've watched real estate agent, appraisers and specialty lenders (like myself) attend one Bar Assoc meeting then disappear, never to be seen again.

Sometimes to achieve the 1% bench mark, you can be creative by adding a bedroom/bathroom/kitchen so that you can increase the rent and value of the property.

Hi All,I'm currently pressed for time between work and trying to grow a rental portfolio and I wanted to put a question out into the wholesaler-sphere in the BR area.

Just find a way to fill in the gaps with a different system and press on.

If you're leaning towards a longer investment horizon, pressing for an amortization schedule that mirrors your financial projections is prudent (Again, look at the cash flow).

It depends on many factors.In general if you are assigning contracts that is a relatively low risk process and an LLC may not be much benefit.Owning property on the other hand is higher risk and I put my properties in an LLC.Mixing the two in one LLC is generally not a good idea and can bring about severe tax consequences if you are determined to be a "Dealer" by the IRS.I am not an attorney of CPA, the above is not to be considered legal or accounting advice for your particular situation but simply how I might handle a similar situation.I recommend Nolo Press, books on LLCs and their webstie as well as seeking advice from a competent professional.Good luck - Ned
