Making that first investment in real estate can feel like a big leap, especially when you're considering factors like your savings, potential risks, and the market conditions.

Feel free to DM.

At what point do you feel is the time to structure a trust for your properties?

Speaking of stocks, it makes everyone feel rich (well the 60%+ of folks who own stocks).

But here I am, trying to put a really strong offer in on a home and I’m not sure if I should go in with the mindset that it’s a 3b/2ba 1,895 sq ft or a 4b/2ba 2,055 sq ft… Seeing as I’m going to rent this one day, if I myself decide to get it assessed/permitted as square footage (which I don’t know how much of a pain it truly is), I ran some rent estimators online (RentCast.io) and the rental comp differences between those two scenarios is about $2,275/monthly vs. $2,600/monthly, which is huge!

There will be people who say to be weary of it because of turnover or the threat of damage and ruining aspects of the property but if you can tolerate it or find tenants you feel will take care of it well, it could be a good route to go on.

You said you know the market, how do you feel about the value of this property?

However I feel the PM should have notified me early on about the complaints from tenants and non-receipt of rents from the housing authority (it is still a mystery on why the rents have not been received). 

Feel free to reach out, I'd be happy to chat about the deal to see if the numbers work.

People from resort towns always feel like their home is worth a lot more than it is.
