As the title states, what are the problems real estate investing that still need a good solution? There is much more technology today, and the advent of AI has definitely eased some pain points.  Where do you struggle...

My business partner and I are working on a seller finance deal.  The idea has been to put three properties into our LLC's name then refi out in 6 months using one of my broker's lenders that allow a 6 month seasoning....

Then there are the challenges with Section 8 tenants paying utilities and taking care of their rental property.

@John Kim @Travis Biziorek is 100% correct.S8 really isn't difficult, but it's not the answer to everything that the self-proclaimed "gurus" make it out to be.With S8 tenants, you're just trading one set of challenges versus direct paying tenants.When we advertise a rental, we take the best tenant we can find, immaterial of their source of rental funds.You want to be careful investing in the City of Detroit because there are a lot of "crooks" trying to sell you Class D properties dressed up to look like Class C or B.Connect with us or Travis for more info!

The fact that you're consuming content and asking for advice shows you're committed to doing it right, which is the most important mindset.Here are some thoughts based on your goals and challenges:1.

My biggest challenge from my previous attempts was finding reliable contractors who actually show up and finish.For those of you successfully doing volume rehabs in WNY, what is your single best piece of advice for securing a reliable general contractor or a strong network of subs (plumbing, electrical, HVAC)?

In the last few months I’ve noticed a pattern great deals are out there, but financing is the #1 reason investors are hitting pause.Some tell me: Rates killed their cash flow, Lenders asking for 25% down stopped them cold, Banks move too slow and they miss the deal I’m curious, what’s been the biggest roadblock keeping you from pulling the trigger on your next property?

Your approach here has definitely given me a lot to think about in terms of spotting hidden value.Curious, with the deferred maintenance challenges you faced, was there anything unexpected that came up during the rehab that you’d approach differently next time?

You can create wealth with either approach but both approaches are more challenging than in the recent past.At this point I mostly seek highly desired property locations such as beach or lake front, Mountain cabins, bonus if they are near a destination such as national park of monument or other tourist attraction, etc.

So until we get some pro growth, reasonable people with knowledge of cause and effect into office, California will remain a challenge.
