@Robert ThompsonI don't think property value are 'low' right now, but lots of us are still buying.In order of easy to hard you can: look on the MLS; connect with wholesalers and others who source off market deals; and reach out to sellers / market yourself.If you can though, start with a house hack or live in flip instead. 

Most professionals will recommend a separate LLC for every $1 million in assets but I don't think that's necessary.

I’m thinking rental but market is rough in Florida.

@Arron Paulino I don’t think there’s anything close to being a “typical” cost for a renovation.

There are many strategies to investing in real estate, and I won't say any one is better than another, but I think you get what you pay for and no one wakes up in the morning wanting to be a slumlord.

I think it's smart for your client to at least do a quick call with an attorney.

@Chris Seveney do you think I should make sure there’s a valid title policy (i.e. that the commitment was fulfilled?)

I think it is if the agent is a good one.

The more I'm thinking about this the more red flags I'm thinking of.

I would need to be able to charge at least 1k a month.i think Lawrenceville and Bloomfield is out of my price range.
