I read in the posts that this is in out of state deal. Personally, if this is your first deal I would steer clear of anything out of state. You said your family lives there, but if you're not physically able to be there and oversea operations that could be a "make or break deal." Also being your first deal and going from 0-20 units is a major undertaking with the addition of unconventional financing. I myself am still a newbie for the most part so I'm just offering my opinion is all.
In December I bought 8 units (2 quads) and it has taken a lot of sweat equity to get these performing well with good cashflow. I am looking to get 12 more units this month 3 quads in one deal, but knowing what I know now I would never even consider an out of state or even a lengthy drive deal with multifamily. 240k for 10 units means the property probably has been mis-managed and needs some sweat equity and a few repairs.
Whatever route you decide to go I hope you are successful and keep us updated!
Best,
Joel
