Quote from @Galvin Mendoza: Good morning biggerpockets,I am a new real estate investor who recently purchased my first 3 flat in Niles!

IMO, real estate agents and lawyers are optional, title insurance is  not.

MLS listed well below market.

“Kim Lisa Taylor is a nationally recognized real estate securities attorney, speaker and author of the No. 1 Amazon best selling book “How to Legally Raise Private Money" and her newest publication, "How to Raise Capital for Real Estate Legally."

Every market is different, but in New Orleans there are two types of guests: 1)  Guests looking for a dirt cheap place to stay and don't care where it is, but will complain about the tiniest little things, when in most cases the Airbnb is much nicer than their own home.2)  Guests looking for a unique stay in a real neighborhood (how Airbnb started, until investors of faceless LLCs started to gobble up and change the fabric of these neighborhoods).

Again, the seller refused (although I'm not sure if this would've been resolved legally at settlement regardless). (3) The cell tower was additionally paying a portion of real estate taxes which we were unable to confirm how much they were responsible for and if they had held up their end in recent years. (4) Cell tower had the right to purchase the lot for $1 at anytime during the lease and the right for an additional 2,500 SF of ground space.In the end we backed out at the end of the due diligence period in order to recoup our earnest money.

residential real estate is depreciated over 27.5 years, but since you took the bonus depreciation, you pulled a lot of it into the first year.2.

We are new to the real estate industry but we are building a family owned business to earn an honest living while being able to provide and instill good ethics and morals into our children.

Laud area-Cash flow is minimal, $300 a month-Selling now would allow opening up of equity to redeploy in another market with over 2x the cash flow for a new build-New market won't appreciate as much as FL though (not even close)-Current home will likely get hit with higher taxes, insurance etc. in coming year and years to come-Biggest reason to consider just keeping current property?

I run a call center for Real Estate where we call for investors and I can tell ya, your best bet with such limited time is cold calling targeted lists (high equity within your buy box) for 3-4 hrs every day.
