🔥 Start now before the next one slips away.

Love this, Jay. Totally agree, creativity is one of the biggest levers in this business. Structuring true win-wins like this keeps both sides invested in the success of the deal. Appreciate you sharing the breakdown, definitely sparks ideas.

Hey Michael, smart idea combining visits with STR income. You're right: Buffalo's STR rules vary a lot by neighborhood. Areas like Elmwood and North Buffalo are popular but have tighter zoning, so it's worth checking permit availability upfront.

Hi Joy, great question and welcome to REI!

Those lenders are solid, but for a heavy rehab, some first-time investors also explore options that skip appraisals, offer 100% financing (purchase + rehab), or close faster with fewer docs.

Success often comes down to finding a lender that works with you on that first deal, not just the cheapest rate. Let me know if you need any help on your first project!

Hey Javin, great to hear you're ready to take action, getting started is the biggest step. If you're looking to flip houses, start by focusing on finding a solid deal where the after-repair value (ARV) gives you enough room to cover purchase, rehab, and still profit. Run the numbers carefully and build a trusted team: contractor, agent, and lender.

Welcome to the community, Bader! Great to have you here. If you're getting into real estate or just exploring, this is a solid place to learn, network, and grow. Feel free to share what you're looking to do buy, invest, flip, build and I’m happy to help with any advice or other support!

Hey Karl, welcome to the game, sounds like you're ready to scale up smart. NY/NJ is a tight but opportunity-rich market, and the BRRRR strategy works well here if you can buy right and move fast. You'll want a solid team of agent, contractor, lender, and property manager dialed in early. BiggerPockets has some active NY/NJ investors, and you should definitely check out local REIA groups and Meetup.com for events in Westchester, Bergen County, and NYC. Happy to connect further if you need deal support or any other help.

Hey Bastien, good move forming the LLC. Yes, get an EIN, it protects your SSN and makes banking easier. To get your TN State Tax ID, register your LLC through the TNTAP portal at tntap.tn.gov. You don’t need a CPA to do it, but having one helps with TN-specific taxes.
