It's growing quickly and well organized.

Good afternoon Kyle.I live in Burlington County NJ, right near where Monmouth and Ocean come together.I became a broker because when I got involved in investing over 10 years ago the gurus said you needed a good realtor on your team.I decided if that was such an important component, why not just become one.So while I am happy whenever I do a retail real estate transaction, my bigger objective is to work for myself and with other investors building a portfolio.Residential real estate is great for some agents, and it is important to stay involved with it to know what a home buyer wants, but for me there are too many emotions involved.Investment property is a business.It can be approached rationally, and the numbers either work or they don’t.There are many posts on Bigger Pockets stating the pros and cons of local vs long distance investing.I personally invest in areas that I know and can visit.If I were you I would not be discouraged about investing in Monmouth.You may need to use more of the creative financing techniques.

Glad to hear you organized something for CENLA!

As a disclaimer, I'm not affiliated with any professional RE organization and I am re-establishing myself since moving to the bay area.  

It's just setting things up for a big fallout with a relative you may never reconcile with.Sorry to be such a Debbie downer on your deal, just want to make sure you're seeing this objectively.

My home has been extensively renovated so I object to the other home being superior when mine is at the same level.

The upside to me is that the tenants and property manager interact with the LLC and I keep all the accounts separate, which keeps things organized and professional.

What are your investment objectives/goals?

Can she object to the DIL?
