It's best to discuss these options with your lender and possibly a real estate attorney to ensure you make the right decision.

Pick up a copy of the book Lend to Live: Earn Hassle-Free Passive Income in Real Estate with Private Money Lending.

That one also free.I believe first time is free at Robin Carriger's DFW Real Estate meetup group on Saturday mornings in Fort Worth. 

This is a very useful site to help you grow as a real estate investor. 

Quote from @Sandra Feurtado: I have been thinking about real estate investing in Cleveland, OH. 

Given the complexity and potential tax-saving opportunities in real estate, it's wise to consider hiring a CPA with expertise in this field.Many clients who work with non-specialists find that their non-real estate preparers lack the specific knowledge to help them minimize taxes through strategies like depreciation, the de minimis safe harbor, partial asset dispositions, 1031 exchanges, navigating real estate professional status, the short-term rental loophole, and more.If you are looking to qualify as a real estate professional, use the short-term rental strategy, or complete a 1031 exchange, I would without a doubt recommend working with a real estate CPA.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

Whether real estate, stock dividends, bond yields.

QOFs can make investments in a wide variety of real estate and new or existing businesses, including commercial real estate, housing, infrastructure, and start-up businesses.
