I'm new to BP and trying to build a team as I dive into more frequent and long-term profitable REI.I've been doing SFH rentals over the last 15-18 years, but it's all been very traditionally financed (ho hum, 30 yr fixed) and as such has limited my ability to invest more frequently, and grow a portfolio.I'm here to learn how to use more creative financing strategies (private money lending, Sub-to, seller financing) to acquire 2-3 units (duplexes, tri) and 5+ multifamily properties.

Hi I just closed on my first real estate investment property today!

Looking at multifamily properties in San Antonio, TX.

I received a letter from the HOA about a violation of the rules - there is an oil spill in the property driveway.

I have bought and partnered with on a handful of properties and have grown my property management services.  

The average sale time decreased by 23.3%, indicating a quick turnover which is beneficial for investors looking for liquidity​​.Property Analysis:Rental income potential: $2,500 - $2,900 per unit, totaling $5,000 - $5,800 per month.Rental Strategy: With the high demand for rentals in the area, this property could generate a steady rental income.

A mentor of mine with 400 units told me I can use a large seller credit to cover most of the down payment on a property I'm looking at.

It allows a substantial portion of the asset's cost to be deducted in the first year of service.In 2023, the bonus depreciation rate is 80%.In 2024, it decreases to 60%.In 2025, the rate further reduces to 40%.COST SEGREGATION:Cost segregation involves dividing a property into its individual components for tax purposes.Some parts age faster, like carpets or paint.Your CPA can use this info to more accurately depreciate elements of your property leading to potential tax savings.BASIS:Your basis is the initial price that you paid for your property, including any expenses or improvements.Knowing your basis is crucial for tax purposes, as it's used to evaluate depreciation & determine the capital gains or losses if/when your property sells.LAND VALUE:This is how much your land is worth without any buildings or improvements.Land doesn't get old like buildings, so you can't depreciate it.

Hello All, I am hoping to have invested in my first property before the end of the year.
