Additionally, we are on the lookout for reliable legal or real estate platforms that could serve as references or resources.If you have any personal experiences or recommendations in these areas, please feel free to share them.

Even if you hold your properties in your personal name rather than an entity, it's a great idea to keep the financials separate for tax filing purposes and for your sanity.Once you've done this, it's way easier to implement a cash flow management system such as Profit First (highly recommend) that allows you to properly budget for reserves, etc.And, of course, it makes it easier to do the same with your personal finances once you no longer have "business" transactions commingled.I'm happy to workshop some of this with you free of charge if you want to go deeper into these topics.I've been through this myself.Just let me know (DM)!

If you have any questions feel free to reach out.

Feel free to reach me directly, if preferred.Cheers

I would say find a calculator online - there are plenty of free ones - and start analyzing properties at random.

Even if you use a large amount of cash for the down payment, you can always do a cash out refinance in 12 months to pull out some of the cash "Tax Free".  

I have a feeling this is where you are at.Sometimes the Alderman's office or community group will want to see what you are "proposing" to build before you can get their support and actually get the Zoning Change approved; however, technically architectural drawings are not reuired (by the Zoning Board of Appeals) for the map amendment process.Feel free to contact me directly if you would like me to look into your specific property in more detail. 

Feel free to reach out if you need any references, I'd be happy to assist.

There are services that allow you to collect online rent payments as well as have the added functionality to help you manage your properties all in one place for free.

Once you have anywhere from 100 to 150 leads, I would find their names in the county auditor and try to use free online software to skip-trace them.
