I honestly don’t think many people know these units exist.

AND try to find a market where you do not have to compete as much with 2nd home demand - a place where people go to vacation but is not top of mind for a rich guy's vacation home destination (ski town, lake house, etc.).If you are asking for the secret market that returns 20% cash on cash without any renovation or difficulty, that doesn't exist.

People get spooked off by terms like "private equity" and "real estate syndication" but it's actually a much easier way to invest in real estate than buying properties directly.

Real estate is a people industry so networking is important.

I noticed some of the wealthiest people I knew owned real estate.

I know people making 5-6k/month doing MTR in Austin.

Many people purchase without an agent at first, and as long as you know your strategy & numbers it is reasonable.

Then again I see so many people STRing in year 1 just to convert to LTR in year 3 once the big cost seg is done and in the bag.

I've done this with my properties because I'm well known in my small town and don't want people to know what I own.LEGAL PROTECTION: By placing your assets in an LLC, you are legally separating them from your personal assets.
