To me the info is all outdated on most if not all of the CE courses, find the one that you can complete in the shortest amount of time, and get back to investing.

In the future, I would love to start with owning multi-family rentals and eventually get into investing in high density rental developments.

Anyone investing in El Salvador?

BiggerPockets Community,My wife and I currently live in Seattle and are looking for guidance in our real estate investment strategy.

I put some numbers below into this Rent or Sell calculator.https://www.narpm.org/members/resources/rent-vs-sell-calculator/ESTIMATES ON ROI (15 year time frame)at 5% Appreciation would profit $100K if SELL nowat 6% Appreciation would have $3,500K more if KEEP and sell after 15 yearsat 7% Appreciation would profit 122K if KEEP and sell after 15 years(Assuming a conservative 6% ROI on money invested from sale.)NOTE: The property appreciated 10% in the last year so I’m thinking 7% over the next 10-15 is reasonable.DETAILSSale Value: $520,000 (Best guess)Paid: $437,000Original Mortgage: $415,000Mortgage Balance: $380,000Interest: 3.375%Monthly mortgage: $2,899Mortgage Difference: $1064Annual Taxes, Insurance, HOA etc**: $20,345**$13,865 (Non Homestead tax) $4,680 (HOA) $1,800 (Landlord Insurance)Monthly Rental Charge $3,500*Appreciation 7%Years to Hold: 15More assumptions used in ROI Estimates Above90% occupancy,15% capital gains charge6% selling feeRate of return on gains if selling now instead 6%Annual maintenance 1%Annual rent increase 4%$3,500 is slightly aggressive. unlikely I could get more.Thanks in advance for any constructive thoughts and comments!!!!

If they want to micro-manage their investments and be involved in every decision or know every detail, I'm not the right guy for them.If your owners demand to know all the details, it demonstrates a lack of trust which means they are micro-managers or you haven't proven yourself yet.

Usually, this would include something like a holding company ("Hold Co"), typically a traditional LLC, which in turn then owns an investment entity, often a traditional or Series LLC, which will be the entity that owns the assets/property invested into (the "Investment Co").

I agree that FL is a still a hotbed for investment but I am not sure condos specifically are worth the risk.

.: I have never invested in STRs. 

Before you put dow $5-20K for training think about how much you woud have to invest to get that back at typical interst rates of 6% that most tax ae properties get bid down to.
