Thanks everyone!

What are the best ways to market your apartment units?  Are different strategies better for different situations?  Where can I get information to learn more?

What's the best way to start learning about hotel investing?  Does anyone have any book recommendations, or other sources to help me get educated on the subject?  Youtube channels on hotel investing would also be helpful.  

What's the best way to start networking, and finding investors for syndications or members of your team such as mentors, contractors, brokers, mortgage brokers, and property management companies?  Any ideas on how to start building relationships with people in the real estate industry?

Does anyone have book that they would recommend for underwriting CRE? If not, maybe some general CRE book recommendations? I am trying to learn more and more about commercial real estate. So far I have read both volumes of Multifamily Millionare and am in the process of reading Joe's book on Apartment Syndications.

Can you guys tell me what depreciation does for real estate investors?  And, what is cost segregation?  As I understand it, you are supposed to divide the building value by 27.5 years, and 39 for commercial real estate.  I'm not sure why we do this, or how this helps real estate investors.  I think it is taxes that are taken away when you sell the property, just for holding it?? 

Thanks! Will do! 

Yoo that’s great tiya! I would suggest reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, and then Brandon Turner’s book on Rental Property Investing.  The main thing is just commitment.  You gotta commit to learning about real estate, and not wasting time.  

You’re behind if you’re not ahead!

agreed!

Can someone explain the tax benefits of real estate?  I know what the 1031 exchange is, but don’t know the concept of depreciation and how that is a benefit to real estate investors.  Any other tax benefits that you guys know of?
