This is the combination of my passive real estate income and the returns from my stock (options) trading.

Wanting to grow in scale - and I saw the opportunity to trade a hot asset - residential mf - for an under appreciated one - commercial mf - How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

If someone in Philly wants to show me the nuts and bolts of buying, rehabbing, and selling houses, I can in trade help with financial model, investor presentation, business plan, deal underwriting and analysis.

What works for one, others will shun, so give real thought to what you really want and need in the way of inventory financing, and then examine the trade offs.Many community owners use outside investors, others use private individuals as lenders with you as the commercial borrower.

You want an accountant that can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the tax consequences of the decisions you are making throughout the year.Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.

Consequently, I'd organize (I know, a stated weakness) and differentiate "addressing phobias" and "strategic business decisions".  

You deserve to wind down, enjoy an ice cold draft, and meet new like-minded investors without the worry of a presentation with a "guru" trainer/speaker.This group is for you because you enjoy great conversation, trading ideas, comparing strategies, and sharing deals with people you can really get to know through genuine conversation outside of the office or the basic and overrated coffee shop.Invite others to join us, if you know they will benefit, if you want to share a drink with them, or if you just don't want to network alone.

@Michael Avillion my biggest regret from 7 Active duty years as a commissioned officer is I didn’t buy at any of my 4 duty stations.It doesn’t even matter if you don’t love your house-buy something the right size now and trade up when rates are lower or just sell when you pcs.

When a tenant moves out we immediately rekey the tenant to our "hammer key" which all of our trades and cleaners and maintenance folks have a copy of-- the key is shaped like a hammer so they usually don't lose it or get it mixed up.

I collect sunglasses (And I wear every pair) and I buy and trade for them with the other weirdos a couple times a year.
