@Steven Westlake Hello Steven I am just getting started with investments, and I live in Bellefontaine, if I can help in any way please let me know.

I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to utilize that to invest in real estate yet, but it doesn’t hurt to ask, right?

Hi members,What is the preferred way to hold investment properties? 

It seems that I don't see them talked about as much as potential investments. 

@Nick LongI think you're overcomplicating this... if it's a fixer, once it's rehabbed, just refinance it into either a conventional investment loan, or a DSCR loan.DSCR loans don't have the 12-month clock - you can usually refinance 90-180 days after purchase.  

But it does not offer that 'wow factor'.

Good afternoon, After looking in Florida, we are expanding our search for an investment property in the Columbia, SC area.

@Faiyaz Hashmi thanks for your tag and I just DMed you a list of Chicago and suburb real estate investing groups.  

Congrats on your success to this point in your investing career!
