@Marc Rice I’m not in your area but would encourage you to check with your local credit unions.

Quote from @Kyler Cook: @Jared Bauer bro said he’s getting older now and he’s 40.

@Levin Angeles   A limited liability company (LLC) is a business structure in the U.S. that protects its owners from personal responsibility for its debts or liabilities.In the event one of your tenants decides to take you to court in the state your property is in and you go before the judge with a out of state LLC, you're going to be cooked. 

There simply is nothing on Wall Street that matches the Investment ROI of real estate, only if one "cooks the books" and does a whole bunch of "what-if" gymnastics can we get there. 

Hey mate,Welcome to the BP forum.You and @Jackelyn Lee are smarty pants heheI quit school at 14 and I'm a two finger pecker typer 🤓My team laughs at me for looking like a Teppanyaki chef throwing rice at someone when I type.Biggest message for you is to always keep the dream alive and to keep pushing forward.There are many unsophisticated folks out there like myself and I'll be cliche and say "if I can do it, anyone can" hehe.What one lacks in talent, has to make up with effort.I've only known one way and that is to put my head through the wall.Many others will just open the door and get to the other side lol.Not me tho ehhhYep, neck is always sore but we keep pushing forward...Wishing you much success with your real estate endeavors 🙏

How many people were moving to ArizonaThe biggest mistake people make is they think appreciation is a straight line which it’s not.If it was then everyone would be billionaires.What will happen if you hit a two year dip and rices drop 10% and unemployment goes to 5% and 10% of your properties are vacant / not paying?

I just started to watch U tube in the last 6 to 8 months primarily for cooking recipes  and Aviation related episodes,  in northern CA there is Juan Browne and his Bloncolori channel I like him a lot.

You know, typical nerd stuff.And cooking.

Eating at a restaurant works for those that don't know how to cook, have no pots and pans and are too buys with their work to come home and cook.

@Marc Rice is right, the midwest, specifically Columbus is a great place to invest.
