I'm interested to discuss some of the marketing ideas other Real Estate Professionals and Enthusiast use as it relates to Search Engine Marketing, Putting Your Website on Page 1 of the SERPS in your Market, Whether you use a content management system like Wordpress or Drupal for your professional website.

If so, I highly, highly recommend that you look into finding a new tax professional who should be able to help you restructure your business in a way that can save you a lot of money.And personally, if I had a good tax professional assure me that my business had no way around paying more than 50% effective tax rate, I'd likely close the business and start a different one.

I know many of you are experienced professionals, please give me some ideas.

Have so much to learn before I become the skilled professional I plan to be.

I'm still new to the whole process as I've never taken part in any facet of a residential real estate transaction, so I feel more comfortable working with professionals who seem to have a good grasp on the process.Originally posted by Joshua Dorkin:Welcome to BiggerPockets, Ryan!
