Doubling down on multifamily, self-storage, and industrial real estate.Raising capital aggressively to get in before the next wave of incentives.Positioning myself to capitalize on tax advantages while everyone else plays catch-up.🔥 #2: Raising Capital Will Be Easier Than EverTrump will likely gut the SEC’s budget—which means less scrutiny on private capital raising.More capital will flow into private equity, syndications, and alternative assets.Fewer restrictions on fundraising, advertising, and deal structuring.Institutional investors will reallocate big money to private markets as the economy shifts.💰 What am I doing?

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

I have rented out this home short term before and have been successful but I don't have any experience with 12 month leases.  

My short-term goal is to secure my first single-family and rental property, while my long-term vision is to build a thriving real estate portfolio that generates wealth and financial freedom.I’m currently learning the ins and outs of financing, deal analysis, and market selection.

If you don't rebuild or replace, the transaction is taxable.
