I'm originally from Kentucky and moved to Palm Beach County to pursue real estate full time.

Hang out with others that are doing what you want to do and invest your $25-$50,000 in real estate vs education. 

The holidays are a magical time, full of family gatherings, laughter, and... real estate deals?

Hi everyone, I am curious if there are any industrial real estate operators on here. 

@Anita Z.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, tax planning and financial planning.

If you choose to go with a first time home buyer program, you would need to identify all the terms and advantage of that as MANY are available.

The combination of its growing tech & healthcare sector, long-term resilience to climate change, and relative affordability makes it an interesting place to start our real estate journey.I spent a big part of my career in hospitality real estate consulting at a Big 4 firm, but I left to explore new opportunities and decided it was finally time to take the leap into real estate investing.

@Chris ShonYes, a real estate accountant is worth what you pay them.

Hey Bigger Pockets community, I'm just starting out in Step 1 (get educated) on what I want to become a successful career in real estate investment.I also currently run an e-commerce business that is currently completely online, but would benefit from having a brick & mortar storefront, and I had an idea that maybe using the investment capital I'm looking to allocate into real estate into a commercial property my business can operate out of until I decide to sell the property in or rent it out to another business.I am obviously very naive when it comes to the complexity of any good real estate deal (especially commercial VS residential), but I'm hoping to spend as much time learning from everyone here who is on their journey as well.My main concern with the idea of buying commercial to operate my business out of it that I might struggle to rent it out afterwards and that there may likely be depreciation in the commercial real estate market over the next 5 years.I understand there is a lot of nuance depending on the local market but I'm guessing commercial is even less of a "safe" bet than finding a solid residential deal to leverage in some way.

I moved many times during my Navy career to markets all over the US and even Toronto.
