Real estate makes us money several ways; cashflow is only one. 

I take a few real estate classes and pay memberships to a few real estate groups, can I write them off only if I have an LLC, or can I do it personally?

@Aaron OrensteinYes, timing matters.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, tax planning and financial planning.

That being said, if it's in the contract but you just didn't deposit it, then you would simply be on the hook for it.Same goes for the end buyer.

Hi all,I’m Josh, a real estate investor (land banking) who started my journey in a small town in Oklahoma and moved to Mexico in 2012.

The real problem is that the vast number of beginning investors never bother to learn their state landlord tenant codes before they invest.This is my pet peeve with new investors...trying to operate a business requiring knowing the law without having the desire to learn.They should never be allowed near tenants, they need a PM.On the other hand responsible investors that learn the laws first I would strongly advise self managing.

Hello everyone,I began my real estate investment journey in 2016 while pursuing dual degrees—an MBA and a Master's in Computer Science. 

Before getting into real estate, I dabbled in Information Technology where the concept of open source software runs strong.
