It used to feel "too expensvie but still safe", now it feels "too expensive and unsafe to buy"....You are now paying $2000 a month to rent... if you buy now, I am just guessing, you will be paying $5000 for the same condo that you are currently living in....Why pay $3000 more to hold an asset that is flat at the best, possibly going down?

I am exploring my next real estate move, and open to all types of asset classes (multi-family, commercial, farmland etc) and abroad. 

I have no reservations re: true service animal; its the pets who will destroy my asset that i fear.  

That before you form the LLC in the area you plan to invest in, you need to ensure that LLC for the specific stare has external asset coverage.

In terms of a cash flowing asset I would not do this .

Finances - Quickbooks Desktop Version (I don't like the Online version and it costs more money)Asset Management - SmartSheet; it's like Excel on steroids (except for the formulas).

Obtaining as much knowledge as I can about the markets that I'm interested in but also want to limit the amount of time wasting I'm doing with potential team members.I can see arguments for both having a realtor first or a property manager first and I'm curious to hear from OOS investors how they began initiating their out of state teams and who was more beneficial to begin working with first when you have little expertise in the market you're about to enter.Thanks in advance!

I incude in my lease agreements a provision disclosing I don’t carry renters insurance and advising tenant to obtain a policy.

I have a friend that has a fair share of liquid assets and he continually makes comments that he would love to invest in my first house flip.

My goal is to obtain 2 more cash flowing properties in the near future.
