I have always dreamed of owning and operating multifamily rental properties ever since I was a little kid.My mom has been in realestate ever since I could remember, everything from being a realtor, fix and flips, buy and holds, and long term rentals.

I can think of a lot of reasons a particular business initiative might fail other than flawed data, and these indexes are more fundamentally part of their core business that seems to have done quite well.

Why not take his name off the LLC and put it in your name now while the LLC has $0 of value (or whatever nominal amount your articles of organization or operating agreement say that you contributed)?

Board collected those funds and put them in Operating instead of Reserves.

Usually turnkey operators suck the equity out of a deal and sell at or above market so there goes the equity. 

Don't operate under the, "we get along and can figure it out" mindset. 

Would love to hear form some Multi-Family owners/operators in these markets about pros/cons and specifically neighborhoods to avoid.My wife and I have been to Columbia SC many times and, while we have never been to Little Rock Arkansas, we plan on going in Late March! 

I am curious to learn how these operations are managed from abroad.From what I've seen, it's 100% possible to invest in real estate in the United States remotely.

Over time, that approach created a core group of loyal investors who’d call him first whenever a new opportunity popped up.

How about using SDIRAs not to hold assets but to operate businesses?
