Quote from @Elealeh Fulmaran: Shahab, start with these three that turn theory into action fast: 1) The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner for clear numbers, deal anatomy, and beginner-friendly frameworks; 2) Real Estate by the Numbers by J Scott and Dave Meyer to level up underwriting, sensitivity checks, and real-world decision rules; 3) The One Thing by Gary Keller to lock your focus so you actually execute your first deal instead of dabbling.

I work primarily in multifamily and short-term rental investing — and over time, I’ve had many conversations with investors about the unfiltered side of real estate: the deals that didn’t go according to plan.Whether it’s unexpected costs, regulatory curveballs, or guest and tenant issues that test your patience, these stories always seem to reveal the same truth — the best investors aren’t just great at finding opportunities; they’re great at managing chaos.Through my investor interviews and real-world deal analyses, I’ve noticed that every “horror story” tends to leave behind one valuable thing: a framework for better decision-making.

Again, I’m not looking to pitch anything or collect DMs here; I’m trying to sanity-check what a fair JV framework looks like when a family has a transit-adjacent parcel with SB 79-type upside but no development capacity, and wants to avoid getting steamrolled in negotiations.

Check out "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor" by Gary Keller for a solid framework, and "Real Estate by the Numbers" by J Scott and Dave Meyer for sharpening your analysis skills.

TJ gave you a great framework. 

They come with quicker settlement timeframe expectations than commercial transactions.

Otherwise I would walk as significant structural issues like wall displacement, footer settlement, sinkholes etc aren't going to be fixed cosmetically by Joe's Handy Service.

Futures pricing reflects a cautious bias, with markets assigning higher odds to a pause rather than a hike, but without fresh data, confidence in these projections remains fragile.https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/irs-reveals-updated-retirement-contribution-limits-2026Addison, Allen, Anna, Azle, Batch Springs, Bedford, Benbrook, Burleson, Cedar Hill, Celina, Cleburne, Colleyville, Coppell, Corinth, Crowley, DeSoto, Duncanville, Ennis, Euless, Farmers Branch, Fate, Flower Mound, Forest Hill, Forney, Glenn Heights, Grapevine, Greenville, Haltom City, Highland Village, Hurst, Keller, Lancaster, Little Elm, Mansfield, Midlothian, Mineral Wells, Murphy, North Richland Hills, Prosper, Red Oak, Rockwall, Rowlett, Royse City, Sachse, Saginaw, Seagoville, Southlake, Terrell, The Colony, Trophy Club, University Park, Watauga, Waxahachie, Weatherford, White Settlement, Wylie, Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Irving, Garland, Grand Prairie, McKinney, Frisco, Mesquite, Carrollton, Denton, Richardson, Lewisville, or Arlington
