Hey @Anthony Dupre, whatever you decide for your entity structure, ensure it's simple enough for you to easily abide by the structure in your day-to-day operations.We've had bookkeeping clients with complicated structures that apparently protected them to the maximum degree but they didn't abide by the structure when conducting transactions in their business daily (lots of unintentional commingling).

Here are a few simple and free ways to learn: Go to real estate meetup groups, attend open houses and speak with the agent there, inspect FSBOs (for sale by owner), walk your area, and speak to people tending their yards.The idea is to engage with other people and ask, Ask, ASK questions about their experience with the local market.Some other ideas: find a home inspector who will let you tag along in a property inspection, and absorb what they are looking at and why.Your mindset and enthusiasm for learning about real estate will open many doors for you.Good Luck!
