I'll cut straight to the chase - I have $100k cash and I'd really like to buy a 3 or 4 unit multifamily.

We love where we're at for our family and is a resort that is gated 318 acres straight to the ocean.Like others have said it's all about location and restrictions.

Buying mortgage is, in my opinion, most expedient straight line but yeah, $ impact up-front, hence why i said I'd get neighbors together, form LLP, and "we" buy it together and do it together.

I have all long term rentals, did 27.5 straight line depreciation, no cost segregations, no accelerated deprecation, no bonus depreciation. no C-Corps and no S-Corps.

You definitely cannot co-mingle funds with pre-tax or after tax accounts...I didn't say it couldn't, but was just saying that there were simpler transactions, like buying and selling a contract, that were more straight forward, and the previous comment that the CPA wouldn't take a client with a SDIRA.

But you all have led me straight.

I am fairly new to the REI scene so not only do I not have the funds to straight up buy the property, but I also don't have much experience.

From the closing we headed straight to the apartment and started tossing out junk and ripping up carpeting, but not before snapping a few "before" pictures.  

So let me get this straight, FHA will only consider so much of1) seller concessions part of your up front costs with their loans because they want to provide financial assistance towards mainly the purchase price of the home(?)

I have literally had people run straight for the door when I acknowledge that a unit has electric heat.
