Hello -  My husband and I are experience real estate investors, with several LTR/MTR/STR located in Ohio and Geogial,    in 2022,  we purchased a seasonal boutique motel in Western New York.   

I am slowly going crazy with how expensive Massachusetts is and I am leaning towards looking at cheaper foreclosure properties.I understand there is some risk to this but I am beginning to think this is the only optio...

Anybody has the historic yearly appreciation data on storefront retail spaces in mixed-use (with hundreds of residential spaces above) commercial real estate? 

The mortgage is secured by the real estate.  

I recommend you include some of your key qualification criteria in the advertisement.

But I would remain open to long-term rental as an option as this seems like a more stable option in terms of income, again this may be my inexperience talking.However, I have always  been somewhat risk averse and investing in real estate is always a big venture, in my opinion/experience, in terms of capital.

He’s done this THOUSANDS of times.  

A good real estate accountant can save them thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend that they find a tax accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.I would also recommend that they look for a accountant willing to work with them throughout the year, who can help them strategize and who is responsive when they want to know the consequences of the financial decisions they are making throughout the year.Good luck.

Including one with a "great" rep on here. 

Westside can be rough especially for a first-time investor.
