I do a lot of business Nationwide and in states like IN, OH, FL, GA & LA you can cash flow right out of the gate.

I recently have turned the day-to-day operation of that business over to new hands and am stepping back to a more administrative role.

It really depends on what you prefer, some prefer crypto currency (not me), I prefer private lending / mortgage notes and structured it in a way where there is no ordinary income taxation on it, so it is treated as a qualified dividends.You can invest in anything / any type of business, it really is based on what YOU want to invest in.

I’ve inherited a rental business with a property in Florida but have been looking at the Gvl/Sptbg area to expand into.

Prices are generally fixed because business owners learn what it takes to make a successful business.

I am looking to invest in a self storage business.

So I guess it's good to know people and make connections with folks you trust to help in your business. 

After a couple months you'll get a feel for their personality and how they conduct business.

Alternatively, you could open unsecured business credit lines and cards to tap for short-term use to cover down payments and closing costs (there's a company that specializes in helping real estate investors do this).

Sent out 2 messages  to individuals last week and I think BP is blocking my messages as well.I’m 18 years in this business flipping and building new construction.
