I am ALWAYS looking at properties up and down the state, because i have investor clients that are always looking to buy.

This past Wednesday, agents, realtors, and investors gathered at The Radian for a night of meaningful connections and great conversations over drinks.

Hello Bigger Pockets Community,My name is Heather Martini, and I'm thrilled to introduce myself as a fellow STR investor and host.

I am a realtor and investor myself so I can definitely give some guidance.

When it comes to age and real estate, we often make quick assumptions.Older Investors: They’re seen as slow, set in their ways, and resistant to new technology.

When we've bought property, if the seller is unrepresented or if they have a weak agent...we pretty much fleece them (sorry, I have a duty to our investors and our customers).

-Administrative Burden: Managing substantial services may require more administrative work and potentially higher costs in terms of time and resources.Some investors do use creative strategies to maximize tax benefits, but this particular approach of converting long-term rentals into an active business reported on Schedule C while providing substantial services is less common.

You don't want to be unable to complete a transaction because the investor-buyer wasn't able to secure financing.

Also, NYC investors looking upstate.

@Sam ChanI know of an off-market tenant occupied portfolio where they're willing to sell individually for 5.99% to investors.
