With the recent episode of BP covering this topic I'd figured it be a good idea to start a thread for all those curious here.

My name is Michael and I'm a Realtor here in the DFW area and looking to get into the investing arena.

I'm currently on the hunt to find what STATE in the U.S that has the fastest process to obtain a brokers license but also can offer reciprocity agreements to multiple states.

I am wondering if everything in the Ultimate Beginner's Guide and other real estate books for beginners that were written a decade or more ago still completely apply to nowadays investing.

A good private money lender should be transparent about terms and fees, have a solid track record and experience in real estate, and demonstrate flexibility in tailoring loan options to meet your needs.

I am considering renting out to a business (to find out if this is allowed in the area),  How is your experience if you have done that.

The multifamily real estate market is gaining momentum as we close out 2024, driven by easing financial conditions and attractive cap rates, according to Marcus & Millichap's Q3 report.Cap rates have surged to an average of 5.8% between July 2023 and June 2024, marking a 110-basis-point increase from 2022's low and the highest level since 2014.

I'm going to have an attorney review my lease agreement, but all the documentation that I have came with my BiggerPockets MANAGING RENTAL PROPERTIES book a few years ago, pre-pandemic...and it's a lot.For those using KeyCheck for their MTR listings, did you also find that additional documentation was needed, besides the 3 key things that KC provides? 

Have a great day!!

I'm buying the property cash, in a trendy neighborhood.
