Hi y'all, So I'm just getting into real estate, I have an LLC set up and will be closing on my first deal in a couple of weeks, a $68,000 single home.

I think most real estate agents won't waste time on buyers who are "coming in with an offer well below asking" with their main justification being they want to pay less, fishing for that rare seller who will randomly accept a much lower offer before dropping list price first to generate competition. 

As I continue to grow my real estate portfolio, I’m actively looking for other commercial and residential investment opportunities to expand my footprint in the market.

my clients have done it. depending who is on the deed. plus, you can rent by the bedroom. highly recommend.

The tax advantages of buying/holding gas stations are pretty great.Many of the components of gas stations including pumps, tanks, external parking areas, and other equipment are classified as either 5 or 15 year property so you can bonus depreciate a lot of it (minus the land value) and get significant deductions in year 1.With the current bonus depreciation rate at 60%, a $1 million gas station acquisition could still lead to $100K+ in year 1 deductions depending on the specifics of your deal.
