Welcome to the Wide World of Bigger Pockets.

My wife and I purchased a home here a few years ago, and have even rented it out on occasion, but that's the extent of my real estate experience.  

That is about the extent of my real estate other then reading.

Real estate investment covers a wide variety of vehicles that range from very time intensive (ex: doing your own flips) to very passive investments (ex: buying notes).

It’s a daily podcast covering a wide range of real estate related topics mostly focusing on commercial RE.

It will likely only go up if there is a city wide reval, but you can figure out easily by using your purchase price, the equalization ratio and rate for worst case scenario increase.

It shows me that even a bad investment (to a certain extent) is better than no investment.

Better make sure you have some wide margins when doing that.  

You have to get a general idea of administrative limitations to a physical development of the property i.e. there is a 40' wide stormdrain easement in the center of the property ect.

No Evictions, EVERI also tell them there is a $35.00 non-refundable background check that THEY will pay for through SmartMove.I still end up with a wide pool to choose from...........then when I meet them...........The best qualified tenant somehow miraculously/coincidentally is the one with the least amount of adults moving in to the property...........If they have a 6 br voucher and it's going to be a mother (and invariably her boyfriend) moving in along with 5 kids I'm good with that.You may want to see if your tenants "volunteer" information about having a lot of family in the area because invariably that "family" usually winds up living at the property......but if someone says they or their boyfriend does NOT have a lot or any family in the area then they seem to miraculously/coincidentally end up at the head of the line in my book as far as being best qualifed to move into my rental.
