Now we are in pruning stage - trimming off the ones that are further away or cause us the most headaches, and adding those that meet our long term goals better.A very wise person told us early on that if we wanted 50 properties, we should plan to buy 100, and sell half to pay off the remaining assets. 

This property is in a great area for me in North Arlington (great schools, stones throw away from a huge community park, and close to I30), and the plan is to live in it for a year or so before renting it out (I’m sure I’ll be picking your brains when the time comes!).

I am excited more about real estate investing wherever the Army has me stationed at and how to use my VA loan to buy a great investment(s).I plan on staying Active Duty and do real estate at the same time.

So you can charge 15% more on your direct booking site and guests would still pay less booking through your direct booking site.Getting on Google Travel:Although Google Travel is one of the lesser-known OTAs it's not actually an OTA.

It won't make sense for every traveler, particularly for a single, business traveler only staying one night, I might argue that STR's wouldn't make sense.But for a family of 5 that would have otherwise had to share 2 double beds and call in a cot from the front desk, it's a no brainer.My family of 5 was able to book a condo on the beach for 4th of july for 4 nights, about $250/night all in!  

It's a 3bed 3bath floor plan with an attached 1-car garage.  15-20 minute drive to the beach. 

I am planning on going in depth with him next time we meet.

Do you have the permits and the plans?

Something like that where you are paying a la cart fees that are applied at close under the buyer-broker agreement and commission agreement.Its going to be fun to figure out this year and next, I’m building basically a subscription based brokerage right now anyways where they sign up for the “plan” that suits them which will require the mandated buyer-broker agreement and commission schedule. 

If you have a lot of assets, W-2 and are flipping in a different state you definitely need to speak to a qualified estate planning attorney, cpa and an attorney that deals with entities and which entity to form.
