No one pays rent.

Going to meet-ups and telling people you are looking to invest in multifamily is good way to find a mentor if you don't want to pay for one.

Repeat: You use the $150k to pay off your initial investment of $100k purchase price + $50k renovation, essentially getting all your invested money back to move on to the next project.

Hi Britney, Theres nothing wrong with paying for a coaching course.

Without interest paying a bit more would be more than fair...but at the same time don't pay much more than the comps. in like condition.

As others have already said, you definitely can remain the host and make another party the co-host, but then allow them to do all the guest communication, pricing, booking, etc.The only tax implication I would say is that I'm sure you will be paying the co-host something.

How much do I pay?

Burning $7800 would get you more use than paying for this course.

I read your post and everyone else's here and not one person knows how much protection you currently have in place.As someone who was accustomed to thinking (mostly) "offense only" I can unequivocally say that the best offense means nothing without good defense.Offensively, you seem to be well positioned offensively.It's hard to say what to do next because we only know how your offense is set up.What happens to you or your wife's plans if either of you lose your high paying W2?

By reading this platform, I'm sure I just saved myself buyer's remorse and not paying 30k for real success multifamily real estate mentorship.
