Newb question here - forgive me - I've found what I think is a pretty solid deal for my area. It's a 4 unit property in East Hartford, Connecticut (let's call it Property B). It cash flows pretty well. I'd like to buy...

There is obviously less "risk" with just paying off my loans, but I am not afraid to carry my student debt if I am confident that my money is being better used elsewhere.Thanks for any insight and opinions! 

Whether guilty or not, the legal fees and time involved would not be pleasant. 

This would be a bit more involved to change I think.

Glad you're here.There are lots of ways to learn more and getting involved in the local real estate investor community in Maryland is something I'd also put on the beginner list.

So, I guess I am a bit of an investor, but I'd like to be more involved in the industry.  

Do you know of anyone who might like to get involved in real estate as a passive investor?"

Getting involved in your local REIAs and BP meetups is a good idea as well.

After talking to some GC's familiar with the work involved beyond the AC units, it looks like the numbers just don't add up on this one.

If you are running to the hardware store on a very frequent basis, or using your vehicle to haul significant amounts of materials, the IRS could question your level of involvement and whether you are providing services to the IRA.
