Upon BP member recommendations, my husband got his real estate license which now helps increase our access and decrease our transaction costs.

I have one I've used on 7-8 of my transactions 

thanks for your time and help rent to retirement works directly with build to rent developers like us around the country once they are framed up. you are buying properties pretty much at market value but with a hand holding. you can work directly with a builder or directly with them. they are just an intermediary. they take 5% on what we make as a builder but have a large list of investors and a systemized approach to selling new builds. if you want to get a better deal I'd recommend directly contacting builders and building it yourself. fly to the market. spend 2 days, tour new builds, get a feeling for how it's going. if your builder isn't building multiple at a time then I wouldn't recommend working with them. rent to retirement is a well oiled and well run machine. they've had their ups and downs with dozens of transactions in florida but modified their process. they are well known and established and transparent. if you have a more specific market and feel confident in your ability to vet deals try it out. happy to talk more my info is in my signature. we work directly with them to sell new builds and no organization is perfect but I have good things to say about them as a builder and potential build to rent developer that sells build to rent triplexes and single family homes through them to end buyers in California like the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and San Diego 

While they are two separate transactions, this would essentially leave you with $3k of net taxable income. 

I would recommend a real estate CPA specialized that knows how to handle sub to transactions.

Obviously it is always a good idea to respect folks time, but find someone who also has skin in the game, investing where you are investing, can talk about their experiences, and also has built a network of folks who can support you after the transaction as well. 

It has been mentioned above but your best bet is to separate the SFR and the 8 unit into two separate transactions.

To answer your question, I will use your description as it most closely relates to my definition of what an actual turnkey real estate transaction should be. 

Good morning Investors,I have always acted  and transacted on full transparency and ethics.

Also, I'll email you once we are ready to move forward so, you can help us in navigating this transaction.
