I’m looking forward to meeting great people and maybe a mentor along the way.

I heard they are scamming people, but never dealt with them personally

Lamassu, hands down.

I've done this with my properties because I'm well known in my small town and don't want people to know what I own.LEGAL PROTECTION: By placing your assets in an LLC, you are legally separating them from your personal assets.

Feeling pretty discouraged when cold-calling people who are in preforeclosure.

I truly enjoy inspecting and seeing new designs first hand.

I suck at predictions as do most people, but here is my best guess on Florida. 

For example, TenantCloud will push (syndicate) your advertised rental to multiple websites at once, casting a wider net and increasing the chances of finding a renter.No matter how wide you cast the net, you still need to have some pre-screening requirements to weed out the people that are wasting your time.

Just realize that if you buy real estate with a heloc, be careful as now you are basically leveraging existing assets for new assets and many times people get over levered and in trouble in those scenarios.

I've seen first hand how during the 2020 NorCal wildfire season and the 2021 Pacific Heat Dome (when temps reached 116 degrees) how people and pets flocked to the Oregon Coast for relief that was 30-40 degrees cooler.
