Hello everyone,I’m currently living overseas and just getting started with real estate investing.

Hello to anyone who sees this,My name is Josh and I am taking the next steps in the world of real estate investments.

Hello all,I understand that opinions may vary and depend on goals and circumstances but I just wanted to hear some experienced local investors weigh in on a first rental property investment in Florence vs Beaufort SC?

Most of the 'experts' (Lawyers and CPAs) do not own investment properties anyway, just ask them.

Is there an agent who specializes in selling investment properties in need of repair to other investors? 

I understand your question but the correct way to buy the home would be to use an investment loan putting 15% down since its a 2 unit (Duplex).

I have been investing for awhile but have only recently started picking up properties that I know will not cashflow because of the prices in the area I invest (Dallas/Fort Worth) and the higher rates.I am still picking them up because it will still pay down debt and provide me with depreciation that I can use to offset my flipping and lending income.

If you were to pay your investors $8,000 in preferred rate of return of 8% on their $100k capital investment, the second year the capital account amount would be brought down to $92,000 right?

Are trailer park homes good investments?
