We do these all the time, and this width of lot and home is common in this area of town and allowed in the planning and zoning code.

- However, the values within the county have risen A LOT since 1985 and the state comes out with a chart each year of Common Level Ratios to show how far off the values in the county are on average. - So, let's say the rate for your county is 2.1.

Container glamping = cool, but higher riskNot saying don’t do it, just know it’s:Zoning-heavyPermit-heavyOps-heavyHarder to finance and exitThat’s usually better as a deal #2 or #3, once you’ve got income-producing rentals under your belt and more margin for error.3.

Basically the current LLC will first deed 50% of the property to you and the other 50% to your partner as tenants in common.

Hey Christian,For major personal home repairs like a roof when cash is tight, here are a few common options to consider:1.

Wholesaling is a great way to learn the market, get hands-on with deals, and understand what makes them work.A few tips from my experience:Focus on learning how to accurately estimate ARV and rehab costs—overestimating ARV or underestimating rehab is the most common mistake new wholesalers make.Try to see deals from the buyer’s perspective—ask yourself if you would actually buy the property after rehab.Networking is key: connect with investors, agents, and contractors early; they can teach you faster than any book.For resources, BiggerPockets podcasts and “The Book on Investing In Real Estate with No (and Low) Money Down” by Brandon Turner are excellent for beginners.You’re asking the right questions early, which is half the battle.

And yeah… LA can work, but the margin for error is razor thin unless you’re very strategic.A couple thoughts that might help as you ramp up:Get very clear on regulations early (especially STR/MTR — city and county rules can make or break a deal).Build a small but strong local team in whatever out-of-state market you choose before you buy.Don’t underestimate how valuable your skill set is — high-quality photos/video/drone work is huge for investors, agents, and STR operators.BP is a great place to learn and contribute, and offering real value like that is how relationships actually turn into opportunities.Glad you’re here — looking forward to seeing you around the forums.
