I mentioned this to my high school, and we came up with an “internship” program that allowed me to intern with one of the top real estate teams in my area for partial credit towards my education.

I have also gained some knowledge of the tax sale process this summer at the firm I am interning for, and I am confident that I could complete any legal work myself.

The people you would want to lead generally have enough self confidence and internal drive to not need a leader, but rather a facilitator, and the people that you don't want to lead can't tie their shoes without a road map and a chaperone. 

The word "depreciation" does not appear in that section of the Internal Revenue Code.

Their rates/points are on a sliding scale depending on the risk tier they assign you based on their own internal criteria, primarily personal credit score and experience (they do pull a personal credit report and require a personal guaranty, even when lending to an entity or Corp .. and the risk tier is also based on the amount of prior flips/exits in the previous 12 - 24 months).Your risk tier also determines the max LTV they'll loan you based on the ARV.They also require at least 10% down, plus closing costs.

With a job change, I'm just not in state enough (or even in the same time zone as I travel internationally too) to handle it myself. 

International taxation is a complex area so you would need the scale to bear legal fees for tax attorneys  and CPAs on both sides of the border.

Hello brilliant BP crew.I'm just starting to invest from New Zealand and enjoying the podcasts that brought me here and reading all your informative posts :)I believe from some research before I start sourcing any properties I'll need these:ITIN (https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxp...)LLC (https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-se...)EIN (https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-se...)I'm wondering if there is a best practice in which order I should attain them.Are they generic enough that I'm best just to do it myself via the above .gov sites?

Hello all,So I built an ADU on my property in Socal, my initial idea was to airbnb the unit as I live very close to an international airport and I thought this would be a good approach.
