So seems to me pretty cheap way to get to meet people that are doing the deals and learn at the same time.Bp is nice and fine.. but its just the internet.. you can only learn so much here. at the end of the day real estate is belly to belly you got to go work and meet with who your going to entrust your investment funds with.. or if your going to try a new line of work..

Yes, full access, so not outsider uninformed of what's being said, taught, promoted, and NOT said, taught etc.. 

That's pretty important if rates were to decrease in the next couple of years.2.

Meetup.com is pretty good, I'd check out here on BP and facebook as well. 

Hey @Arron Barnes , I've been using RentRedi for a few months and has worked pretty well for me. 

I would imagine that the hotel marks up their rates to use airbnb a little to offset their service fees, so the net is pretty close to what you would expect.

I did a quick check in SLC and while I couldn't find a duplex at that price point and what I did find was pretty far out from downtown, but would something like this: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/141-E-Nort... be of general interest?

The tax advantages of buying/holding gas stations are pretty great.Many of the components of gas stations including pumps, tanks, external parking areas, and other equipment are classified as either 5 or 15 year property so you can bonus depreciate a lot of it (minus the land value) and get significant deductions in year 1.With the 2025 bonus depreciation rate at 40%, a $1 million gas station acquisition could still lead to $100K+ in year 1 deductions depending on the specifics of your deal.
