Flips but it really depends on your potential profit and can you force appreciation but if you can flip back up to the profit then flip

I'm can't wait to dive into the large world of investing especially in real estate market but often times when I'm putting tighter my plan to run with I'm faced with many problems for instance I was planning on buying and holding and then scaling up sailing those properties via a 1031 exchange and using proceeds to get an apartment complex .But the problems I'm often faced with is will I actually be able to sale these multifamilys properties 1-4 units and get financing via FHA as I know they require it to be owner occupant and are real sticklers as the units go up as far as being approved and terms and conditions. So overtime have built up cash flow in which goes into savings account while my rebates pay the rent this will boost my equity in the property as my mortgage payment will be made and hopefully at least recieve 4 percent appreciation. Any insights or other things I should consider thanks much and appreciate all the help.

I would say hire a lawyer and have them moving quick and don't install cameras .. Hopefully this slip and fall won't happen to you again as it is fraud on the tenants behalf best thing I think is to keep quiet lay low and keep a close eye on your property

using a realtor I think is great because of the access to available properties they can find you and she would prob I'm assuming would manage that new investment property as well. As far as the negotiating goes I don't see it being confusing or causing hardships on your end as you are the purchaser 

is say go with a local management company there out there just google and from the sounds of the prop being in good standing is say keep and rent it out collect your cash flow unless your trying to scale up and need capital to venture into other business ideas
