It’s a blast helping new investors like you find their rhythm and start building wealth.Talk soon,JulianTurning investment visions into REALITY in Omaha, NE - Ranked #1 city to move to by Forbes Magazine.

A few months back, I worked with a friend who’d helped a first-time flipper in Jonesboro turn a crusty old single-family place into something that looked straight out of a design magazine.

For example, Brandon Diaz our instructor showed us a picture he said was in one of the issues of Time Magazine when he was a Marine in Baghdad.

At the time I looked, 20 or so years ago, the problem with smaller down towns is the proliferation of nearby strip malls, where the stores are surrounded by a large parking lots, and for laundromats, attract more customers as they can park easily, walk to adjacent stores for shopping, snacks, and browse newspaper and magazine racks, which explains why they do better, there's more customers.

After five seasons, at the height of their shows popularity in 2015, they decided to pull the plug on the show and focus on their 5 kids, on reviving the city of Waco, and launching Magnolia Magazine.

Short term, assuming the real estate lobby doesn't sue this to keep delaying/appealing, once it goes into effect there will be no more broker fees paid by tenant *unless they hire the broker*Some long term effects I can predict already: - Landlords now having to absorb broker fees will bake this into the rent (e.g. how "no fee" units typically are priced a little higher than other units) - Real estate board will require another document (or checkbox) for tenants to sign stating that they're hiring the listing broker and responsible for compensating them for their fee *if* they apply and are approved- Regular New Yorkers will have an even harder time to find an apartment because you cannot legislate/regulate away a housing crises... 

Any New Yorker will tell you the same thing.

(FYI maybe ya wanna read Global Finance magazine as Luxembourg was rated #1 richest country in the world 2024, give ya 2 guesses how that is as there's no oil, no ocean, land-locked tiny nation middle of Europe.....)....

I do this actively networking with other investors, sharing content on sites like Bigger Pockets and Think Realty magazine, and building relationships with referral partners like wealth managers.Finally, you have to have the best people working with you from your lender partner, to your property inspector, to your property manager, to your insurance partner, and asset protection and business attorney.

The hurricanes certainly didn’t stop Californians and New Yorkers and everybody else in the US from flocking to Florida in droves pre-Covid and during Covid and I think it’s always going to be a popular tourist destination and place for people to want to live.
