I was honestly shocked and horrified when you didn't just say something like "Yeah, Scott, I own the frigging building - I raised the capital, formed the entity, am responsible for operations, and plan to deliver the best investor experience (and great returns) that I am capable of for the investors who I've partnered with."

This allows for proper retirement of assets.If a property has already been sold it may still be a good candidate for cost segregation as long as you sold the building and have not filed the tax return.

For example, theirs is relatively less maintenance and comps are easier to find.If you're looking to maximize returns, typically SFH and multi family would yield better returns and wouldn't have the risk of HOA fees increasing.

There are duplexes in KC that will return the numbers you are looking for. 

This will allow you separate business income and expenses from personal income and expenses.Since you plan to house hack your bookkeeping and tax return preparation will be more complicated because a percentage of your home expenses will be personal deductions and some will be business deductions.

2.How can I better evaluate and communicate an investor’s return on investment (ROI)?

What's the net return % look like?

If you can manage the relationship to lessen turnover frequency and get a similar return as large landlords where if they took the same approach as the large landlord they would earn LESS.

Seeing 9-10% return On Paper, I couldn’t help but connect to the long term RoI of stocks.

Quote from @Michael Diossa: @Remington Lyman Do you feel Single family is a better return on investment than Multi's in Ohio.When all is said and done, the numbers are often much closer than people realize.
