Hi all- I’m new to real estate investing. What are some books/ reading materials you would recommend to learn about selecting the right investment property, things to look out for, laws etc.?

Any real estate salesperson available for a quick chat. I just got my salesperson license(MA) and wanted to speak with someone who has gone through the same process to get a better idea on how to kick start my career in RE.

Curios to know if the RE bowl think there will be a crash in RE prices since it was at a peak for the past couple years, a lot of realtors are saying no it won't but a fisherman won't say his fish is stink so I don't put much weight on their opinion. Also I am thinking these ppl that are paying way above the asking price for some properties will lose once the value in some of these properties drop. That's just my 2 cents, curious to know yours.

What is an appropriate amount to have for an all expense mortgage (property taxes, hoa, etc)? My income is a base of 140 with a bonus of around 15k. I currently contribute 100% to 401k and Roth.

I want to get a place I won’t want to leave in a few years so I’m thinking of getting something more than a starter home but don’t want to be living paycheck to paycheck

I’m looking to purchase land and building. I’ve built up quite a bit of equity to roll over. In addition, both of my parents are retired and getting older. The house they live in is my childhood home which has been paid off.

If we both sold, do you know of any ways to pool our assets for something like building a main + guest home while minimizing any tax exposure/implications such as gifting?

Can I be under contract on two homes at once? Let's say A as a 2nd home (will close first) and then B go under contract afterwards as an investment property, that will close much later after the 2nd home?

Why are LA home prices way higher than DC but LA rental prices way lower?

How much did you spend furnishing your first home?? I've got a 2800sqft 4 bed room 3 bath with a game room and office and I'm looking at $30k ish.

What is a reasonable price to insulate approximately 800 sq ft of a third floor? I would say attic and it likely doesn’t make a difference, but there are actually stairs and that go up there so third floor it is. For context I’m getting quotes to finish it as an office and entertainment space. Builder has put insulation but apparently it’s minimal. Don’t want to get ripped off by contractor. Thanks in advance.
