Newly licensed agent here, just wanted to ask what is the best lead generation strategy?

If you're "lucky" your employer matches up to a set percentage, but all that money is eaten by fees, so it's kind of a bummer.

@Mike MoranAs Ashish mentioned, schedule E income is passive and does not qualify for Solo 401k contributions, but your income generated from real estate sales would.

.• Despite the slowing economy due to the pandemic, the Georgia Department of Economic Development generated $632 million in company relocations and expansions in 2020, which bodes well for future activity.• Atlanta’s higher-wage jobs — $60,000 per year or more — increased since the by 3.0% in 2020, a positive trend as 2021 begins.Multifamily• Despite uncertainty in 2020, Atlanta’s multifamily sector has remained strong, with overall vacancy just north of 5.0%.

Self employed or W-2 attorney?

Ya, it makes a lot of sense for employers to pay their employees rent for tax reasons! 

Depending on your area you'll likely have enough for a downpayment after a few deals but you'll also have to qualify based on income & employment requirements, filing your tax returns a specific way, etc. 

I own two rental LLCs (with partners) and a Real Estate Services LLC (with a TC employed). 

Our home we live in is paid in full- in today’s markets it would go for $400+ so there’s equity to use.Being self employed we have taxes to show 2-years of income.

In my humble opinion and experience, the most important question to ask is not "which is best," but rather "what strategy will generate leads with the Negotiation Dynamic I want to have?”
