Hi, I am 15 and I want to start my real estate investing career.

Typically, the 26% residential solar tax credit does not apply to investment property.

HOA violations or fees racked up by tenants I dont invest in HOA neighborhoods.

My current investment portfolio is solely in stocks, options, and crypto.

When comparing comps, pay attention to additional features like private pools, garages versus carports, ADUs, or any other standout features often overlooked by newer investors.

We can give you lots of thoughts on what might be happening, but you don't want to invest based on that.

I wouldn't suggest investing further than 2 states away from where you live.

Houses have flipped on my street for $MM - bought at 400k and sold at 1.7M or bought at 800k and sold for 3.2M, etc...We can either add a second floor and invest a lot (OPM) and sell or invest a little (our equity) not add a 2nd floor and rent it out to keep it for future sake.

Written by attorney investors, it's full of practical advice about the management of investment property, has sample forms that can be edited, and - most importantly - tells you what your primary state laws are and where you can read them.

Things like septic pumps burning out, steam room dying, guests catching the grill on fire and leaving burn marks on the hardi siding, emergency bug treatment, above ground pool which is ridiculously hard to manage in our heat & having no time to deal with it if it starts to go, laundry & drying time for all the towels and linens, etc, etc.There are plenty of things we can and will get better at, but I'm prioritizing the stress level of my people as well as the very near disasters we've narrowly avoided, over the little bit of extra revenue we'd generate.
