NJ is very blue, liberal, tenant friendly state.

City's with radical liberals in power like to throw unenforceable laws on the books.

To me, this is a red flag.He's trying to keep liberals from wanting to move to Texas.

@Brian King If/when you're ready for a small MF, would something like this "float your boat", https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/1710-Liber...?

I cant describe how hard these drives were, yet also they were very liberating and refreshing.

The truth is that investing in real estate through an SDIRA can often cause you to pay much more tax than if you took the money out, paid the tax, and liberated your money to invest in real estate.Most of the people I know that started using SDIRAs to invest in real estate, eventually pull it all out to invest outside the SDIRA.

The more liberal the location, the higher the risk.
