As you expand your portfolio, employing LLCs and DSCR loans can be a strategic move.

Understood I made a bad move here as this was first investment so didnt think much except at the location for longterm growth or possibly I move there as part relocation.

Let me know if you have any questions moving forward! 

If your friend is unwilling to pay that then move on.

The seller said that he had a court date that would clear up all the issues and allow him to move forward with closing. 

@Jeff M. would love to hear what made you change direction and move away from investing in Lorain.

We know 3 of the units can't be the issue since they either moved in or out while this was happening. 

One piece of advice I took from Brandon Turner is do one thing each day to move the needle forward. 

Another option is to split the cost based on the number of occupants in each unit but this also means you'll need to adjust the charges as tenants move in/out, so it requires more work and I wouldn't recommend it.

There are no upfront costs so why not establish a relationship with someone who actively represents real estate investors and move forward with vetting your ideas.Best.
