Many Texas cities are incentivizing developers to build affordable housing units, but challenges remain around keeping these homes accessible long-term.

As we kick off 2025, the real estate market is continuing to evolve, presenting both opportunities and challenges for investors.

Plus, investing in new construction has meant fewer headaches and better cash flow for us over time.Real estate isn’t without its challenges, but it’s hands-down the best way we’ve found to build long-term wealth.

Challenges?

Answer sure.. have to check if there is a due on sale clause or if you have a PG to the orignal seller.. that mortgage stays in your name unless there is a formal assumption  Maybe the example is more challenging for a house as the property.Ex. with vacant land - seller finances to me $20k with 5% down and $1k/moCan I after 1-2 months, then resell the land to a cash buyer for $25k, pay off the original $20k and pocket the $5k?

Challenges?

I have a list of them that I can share with you.Chicago, without a doubt, has some downsides, but there are also a lot of positives, like the inventory of older multi-family properties and price points at all levels.Investing out-state can be challenging because of the distance and the need for boots on the ground that you can trust 100%.

Challenges include depreciation in market value (i.e., mobile homes often lose value over time unless they are situated on owned land) and tenant turnover.However, tax advantages include depreciation deductions, which allow you to offset rental income by writing off the property's value over time, and cost segregation, which accelerates certain deductions.

It's important to consult with an attorney or an accountant to determine whether an LLC is the right choice for your specific situation.You can reach out to me and my team who can guide you through the process and help you navigate any challenges that may arise.

@Jay Hinrichs @Jonathan Greene @Nicholas L.you have all helped me to really consider what type of challenge / path I want to get into, and all this information is excellent.
