My predicament comes from the situation of living in one of if not the most overpriced real estate markets in the world right now.My goal in joining this forum and building relationships with the people on this site is to navigate this difficult real estate market in order to advance my financial situation to better the life of my family.I understand allot to starting in this game is taking action and not sitting back on the fence but I find myself in an area that doesn't allow for an ideal return on equity as far as real estate investing for flipping/renting for positive cashflow.I look forward to having productive conversations with the fine people here on biggerpockets forum in hopes of helping other people succeed while succeeding myself in the ever changing world of real estate.Cheers,Matt Bouwman

I will be working remotely, and ideally would like to travel like a digital nomad at times, so would also be interested in a place that would be appealing to airbnb people or people wanting to rent.I was also wondering if someone could describe Lake County to me, in terms of the people and culture, and whether the outlook for the area is open to setting up cottage industries, art colonies, tesla-like communities, etc.Thank youp.s.

Ideally you want to present properties with at least a 1.25 coverage ratio.

For this to be a sound investment, what would be the ideal renovation budget range/percentage?

Hello Guys,Ideally, I want to set up one account with the tenants, however; be able to control which bank and account # that money ends up going to.Reason:  I am dealing with multiple banks for loans, HELOCs etc.  

We closely follow the strict zoning restrictions in Miami Beach to make sure our units are legal (although ideally you could get into an unrestricted unit).

Ideally, we'd want the property to be sold & an escrow company handling the funds, to ensure we will get what was promised in our JV contracts.

In most markets/cases, the ideal investments are C properties in B areas.

I guess you could drop your rents if you passed those expenses on to the tenants, but that doesn't sound ideal from a landlord perspective. 

Suggest you create a general format script and identify the key factors that help you make a personal connection with a principal, identify the opportunity to solve one in more problems and determine if it's a 'now' problem or your (qualified) prospect needs nurturing.Also, create a spirit of helpfulness.Curiously, after a stroke cleared my RAM memory done years ago, my telephone sales skills were completely gone and this was both frustrating and a bit astonishing.
