Petersburg area in FL (also looking a bit in Sarasota), and upon some initial digging, we've determined that these could be potentially solid areas to start our real estate portfolio.

I didn’t like the expense involved when I researched cost of maintaining a business account to self manage 1 rental and found that the LLC route wasn’t necessary if we maintained an umbrella policy, so I just keep track of rental income and expenses (not that hard) on the one I self manage and any extra expenses on the ones managed by property management to add to their annual summary for my accountant.

You'll want to look more at the closing costs than the interest rate since you should have 50k worth of work done in a few months and your rate is annualized meaning that you'd be paying about 1% interest per month.

Then understate costs. 

What I paid for it + the cost of the improvements (~$200k)2.

Hello all,Business is going well, and most of you know me as an investor focused Realtor in Omaha and in the next couple months I have the amazing opportunity to scale that business exponentially as the Acquisitions Director for an amazing Real Estate Company (more info to publish later) but I am actually seeking recommendations for a good real estate tax professional who serves the Omaha area.Basically I am already formed as S Corp but I am forming an LLC (potentially under my S Corp) with myself and the contractors I work hand in hand with to renovate properties with the intent of serving under one "legal" roof when we assist investors in finding and renovating properties for investors and want to make sure we set ourselves up as strong as possible.Any recommendations?

I happened upon your post here and am looking to potentially buy a VA assumable home in Hawaii.

Before ot is said about potential loss on stocks cashed in.

You can charge a hefty premium because with the shop fully equipped the operator saves the cost of outfitting the shop and the time and effort required.

While the cost of a system like this is high, I find it appealing to have all keyless entry to the building and units.
