When I sit down with clients I will always discuss (1) their personal assets, (2) what their current investments portfolio and other business ventures are, and (3) their future goals.

Only reason to do it is in anticipation of tax event and taking advantage of low state income tax when the tax event happens like a big stock portfolio liquidation.

AirDNA and All the rooms are on-line data collection companies that also follow residential hospitality trends.Demand - Depends :)  I always like to talk about "Portfolio Diversification." 

I am a Realtor that is currently house hacking but looking to expand my portfolio of rentals in the next year.

You'll get the chance to talk to different investors who all have different methodologies and are at different stages of building their portfolio, which will be awesome for you to develop some knowledge and start thinking about what you want your investments to look like. 

@Mo FarrajI wouldn't worry too much about capital expenditures long term, as long as you have a portfolio. 

I don’t qualify for conventional loans but I may be able to utilize a portfolio lender based on my given situation.

Total profit over 3 year period is around 56k (28k for me, 28k for my partner) $8,200 of our own cash invested (14k of rent credit so even though it is not out of pocket, it reducing our cash flow on our portfolio about 900 a month for 10 months).Total out of pocket is about 11k. 

Within 60 days and for no less than 12 months is ubiquitous, even non-qm and portfolio loans just use the standard FNMA boilerplate contracts that contain that exact promise (0% chance any SCOTUS will ever rule a FNMA contract void due to contract language, since that would eradicate trillions of dollars of American homeowner net worth).

Now I'm looking to go solo with mostly my own money in different towns, being that NYC is to expensive for me to build my portfolio on my own.
