Not to mention, where should I buy first?

I prefer under-valued, distressed, poorly managed, properties needing updating/rehabbing in markets where I can buy at a discount and build equity and cash flow for my time and investment.

Investment Info:Industrial buy & hold investment.

You can only use an LLC to buy if you have cash or two years of tax returns through that LLC and can get lending with it.

I personally buy buildings that either have limited commercial exposure in relation to the total units or building SF or alternatively buildings that possess commercial spaces that are large enough where placemaking can attract amenity tenants that benefits my residential real estate in close proximity.

It's now time for us to buy a larger family home, but I don't want to sell my 1st home b/c I'm going to rent it out as well.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

You aren't ready based on what you said.NJ is one of the toughest flip market in the country now (Northern) because the prices to buy the dumps is high because inventory is low so the spread is too little for new flippers.

@Tyler Torres what S8 guru course did you buy?

Paying a Contr to do everything sucks up a lot of $$...Personally I would buy the worst house in a run-down area of a nice city that is getting ready to gentrify.
