If you are serious about real estate, I highly recommend going pro.

(edit: the property can have up to 3 units built on it...house with attached separate apartment + unattached ADU)Of course, other people are telling me to park my cash in a high yield savings account and just chill LOL, but I'm not really comfortable with that either as an investment strategy.

How do you get a returned phone call from the tenant? 

This is for my 2023 tax return, and I have filed an extension. 

I would avoid Disney area right now as it is very difficult, especially in that price range.The Tampa area 100% can deliver those returns. 

Quote from @Robin Simon: Its definitely dependent on a lot of variables, personal situation/risk tolerance, etc.But high-level, I would say that there can certainly be a balance - sometimes people forget that when using hard money or any sort of financing, for some reason you need to "MAX out leverage" - i.e. do a 100% financing for a flip or a max cash-out refinance etc..However, most hard money lenders would be totally willing to do a lower leverage loan (and would probably prefer it) such as 50% or 60% LTC instead of the usual max amount. 

You could turn the matter over to a collection company (including law firms that do collections on contingency), but normally, they charge a very high percentage of what they recover, and you normally have to authorize them to settle for any amount the want to.

Therefore, those who were charged based off this calculation can get a refund for 2020-2023.In order to receive the refund, you need to file an amended return.

I would highly recommend them. 

Yes, I would highly recommend my realtor.
