If done this way, the investor could use this as a powerful tax strategy to spread the taxable event over years, lowering the effective tax rate faced from the taxable events.I have heard professionals compare it to an installment agreement, but with more control.

Or in my day a Zig Zeigler event ( I loved that guy) or Robert Schuler would have some top speakers at his events as well.

They are always publicly posted on our website, in the events here on Bigger Pockets, and on Instagram.Look for Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing in the events for NJ here.

Even just attending local meetups or Chamber of Commerce events to get acquainted with their crews could be a good way to expand your circle.

I was just in Dallas last weekend for a speaking event. 

And guess what, were not even doing that militarily anymore, nope not event there.

I host multiple in-person investor events around Cape Coral, FL, and the next one will be at a luxury home, and the topic is STR. 

There may also be costs associated with setting up the accounting for the shells, and preparing inital shell formation meeting minutes, etc...You will also need separate bank accounts, and a war chest of money to defend them if/when needed.Ask your asset protection attorney vs salesperson for a quote on the cost to defend, and how much it will cost to move title to the shells.Find out if moving the title creates a taxable event for you with the IRS re.

Hi Everybody,I am interested in attending some real estate meetups/networking events in the Chicago area.

Be also mentally and emotionally prepared for the folks that think just because this is not your primary home, it's somehow less of a catastrophic event for you because others did lose their primary homes.That's why it's vital for you to form support networks with people who are in your same boat - ideally in the same community.This truly pains me to share - but most of the disasters I'm seeing across Western NC are going to be considered flood events and if you do not have a separate flood policy you will likely get no coverage.
