As an 18 year veteran of RE investing, and having dabbled in many investing strategies, two important things come to mind.1.

Its very helpful to hear veteran investor's line of thought of these types of decisions.

If you are a veteran in the stock market, you could still make money | if you are a rookie, you may want to do some research.Since you want to focus on your other businesses, buy and rent would be a good strategy.

Taxes went down because I had all of the STAR program and veterans credits and owner occupant goodies.At the time it was worth doing in my case but I had needed a place so it worked out well.

Can some veteran investor who has been through it all break it down.

I always pay to have a professional photographer come in to take pictures of properties I'm selling.  

I love real estate and providing amazing homes for others, especially veterans.

I pay for all newspaper advertising, (yeah still done here) professional photographers, MLS fees, signs in the yard, post signs, flyers, $100 ebox sitting on the door for 6 months.

Really interested in hearing from other veterans on what to watch out for.

We do free multifamily investing training for veterans EMAIL me for info my BP PM does not work.
