I am based out of the Tampa Bay area and have lived here my entire life.

Fear is the number one motivator or de-motivator in life.

Build your foundation before you build your house and you'll have a much easier life and deals will get done easier and quicker than always being one step behind your deal.

I have some capital to use, but i need guidance so i don't lose the money i saved up my entire life.

I'm very eager to start this new journey in my life.

I know I could refinance the loan at year 10, but the risk is higher interest rates at the time. the refi costs would still be less than the $6240 saved over the life of the balloon loan.

Plan for them not to sign your lease, plan for them to have to adhere to the signed lease (which you should have), plan for turnover/vacancy, and move on with life 👍🏻

My first "move" in life was when I decided at 19 to move to the US from France, and try to have a life there.Concerning real estate, I personally don't own anything yet, but I have been involved in my mother's real estate investing since age of 17.

Then I have to go to the Secretary of State website to enter the entity name and see if I can find the name of the actual owner (human) who owns the LLC and then cross-check the mailing address provided by the Title Search report to see if it's a residence and if it's the residency of this person.It's not only highly inefficient and not scalable but also highly inaccurate. 

I know its a bad time in your Life But I admire your Courage an fortitude.
