I would recommend reaching out to a cpa once you close on your property or have the property under contract.

Stick to the game, you have learned a ton in this short time, and keep going!

-How did you assess execution ability vs. just talking a good game?

But, for specifically Florida, to be the first state to remove all property taxes would be a game changer.

Feel free to throw in any other game changing self managing pro tips while you’re here 😊😊😊

Quote from @William Thompson: One thing I’ve noticed working with a lot of investors is this:People spend a ton of time researching markets, strategies, and financing…but almost no time building the habits that actually keep their portfolio healthy long-term.Here’s the simple truth:Your systems will make or break your growth.Not the market.Not the deal.Not even the interest rate.I’ve seen investors with average deals but great systems outperform people buying in the best markets with none.Things like:Keeping clean booksTracking expenses in real timeReviewing your numbers monthlyHaving a game plan before tax seasonThese aren’t exciting, but they’re the difference between “I think I made money” and “I know exactly what’s working.”Real estate is more forgiving than most businesses… but eventually, disorganization catches up.The investors who last are the ones who treat it like a business early — even when they only own one door.What’s one system or habit that’s helped you stay organized as your portfolio grows? 

You summed it up perfectly, cash flow is what keeps you in the game long enough to benefit from the upside, and the upside can accelerate things when it comes.That’s exactly how I look at it too.

to be a partner you have to bring something to the table, if it isn't money it could be skills but if you had skills I think you wouldn't be here, you would be selling them and your idea to your people you know to reach your goals.

But, you are just playing a sales game.

You don't want to be so focused on getting into the game that you leverage the start of your entire life just to do it.
