So essentially my uncle got with a realtor to sell the house, and here we are roughly 8 months since my grandmothers passing.

This tax law change is not a good idea.When you’re investing the kind of money required to purchase and manage property, tax benefits become essential.

Most of the banks I have spoken to tell me that in order to get a loan I would have to essentially rebuy the house from the seller and that just doesn't seem like something I want to do.

I think a clear goal is essential and I feel like I’m close to knowing it all the way!

Look at housing in major metros like Hong Kong where young people are living in what is essentially a studio or 1-bed condo and paying $500,000 for them.

I’m seeing it more and more in sale listings.Small touch of color: the unit I am going to photo has a challenging layout for kitchen and bath, both are essentially galley style, long and narrow.

Essentially, I would find 5-10 other investors who also don't like our PM options. 

With some properties, the manager is solely there to collect rent and deal with tenants, with other properties, I expect them to essentially "run" the property for me (pay utilities, take care of accounting, insurance, etc.).

Living in San Francisco and working at your job has allowed you to save $2,500/year for 10 years, while essentially renting a room for $1,600/mo and not owning the property.You have the opportunity to move to Sacramento and put that $25,000 down on a $250,000 property.

I currently have 22 doors and essentially have run out of capital.
