Before learning about sales and marketing you should know how to recognize potential and how to run numbers to secure a deal.

While some less experienced Realtors may shy away from courthouse sales due to the complexities involved, I recognized the tremendous potential this presented and dove in headfirst.How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

I certainly haven't.It seems that the younger generation has recognized the appeal of warmer climates, which is evident in the significant influx of non-retirees relocating to Florida.

California does not recognize series LLCs.You also want to look at whether a pass-through entity helps your bottom line and your taxes.

Or are you making the mistake your family & friends 100% understand what you do, know how to recognize opportunities for you and you are always top of mind with them?

It is a bit of a gamble, but personally, I always get my own bids from people I will hire and either take a credit on price or have title issue the checks directly to those contractors to get work done as soon as I close.  

Secondly, their contractor more than likely recognizes that repairs/work on investment properties are extremely time sensitive and understands the standards expected.

I expose myself to other stuff for the sake of a natural curiosity and to gamble a little.  

If this were me in your shoes, I would take heed in recognizing my expertise.

CPAs might not always be proactive in asserting their value in the initial structuring process, leading to their exclusion from early discussions.However, recognizing the importance of CPAs in optimizing tax efficiency, mitigating risks, and ensuring financial compliance, it's beneficial for GPs and their legal teams to involve CPAs from the outset.
