I’m actually in the Commercial Syndication space in real estate and have just recently wrote up a Detailed Market Analysis of Mobile, AL to better help my passive investors get a sense of what market they are getting into when investing with me and I’ll attach it here for you! 

Closing a deal can be a real rollercoaster ride!

I am brand new to real estate investing.  

Real estate generally appreciates based on location.

There are at least 3 or 4 people who have courses on it so it is a real thing.It is closer to STR that LTR because they are always furnished and can easily be converted to STR if you have a gap in bookings.

That said, there would be arguably no business purpose to bringing your family along with you, so even if you are spending the entire time searching for real estate.

If the real property is in CA, you're definitely doing business in CA.Most likely the state where the property is located is where lawsuits would be brought if they are something for personal injury like a trip and fall or something of that nature because the “cause of action” arose in that state.

Trust me, I'm smiling, not to denigrate anyone but because of the naivety of the question.NOTICE: I am NOT an agent and I've never used an agent to sell a property.

Lesson learned Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Hi everyone,I’m hoping to get some advice from those of you with real estate experience.
