I dealt with in the Boston rental market during December - February even though Boston is notorious for being a strong market.

That will affect your current ability to attract quality renters or receive strong reviews following their stay if made into a STR. 

I recommend you build a strong foundational understanding of real estate investing.1.

I think it comes down to you the investor needing to raise your financial IQ to be able to advise your tax professional on what to do so they can implement the strategy instead of them strong arming you into a conservative and poor tax play.

When you're buying a mess like this, covered in red flags, it should have strong cash flow to cover all the work and money you'll pour into it.Unless you know what you're doing, I recommend you walk away.

I would love to make a strong offer on your property that works in both of our interests.If this is something you're interested in feel free to contact me....

While these are smaller areas, the rents are strong and you can find a property that may suit your needs and budget. 

You’re only as strong as your team and we have a strong investor focused team!

If you have a strong work ethic, patience, and a desire to have true wealth, real estate investing will give you a much bigger ROI than a Roth IRA or any other stock market vehicle.But if you just want to put money away and never think about it, a Roth is a fine place to store it.

But I would strongly recommend once you decide where to invest that you work with a Realtor that is a fellow investor too.
