Maybe seller financing.But let me ask this question, what happens if in the third month the furnace goes and needs $2000 worth of repairs?

Told me the violation wasn't corrected in the 30 days required timeframe (yes you are correct, the repairs were done in time but they didn't come out to confirm). 

Computers can analyze property based on subjective data (square footage, # of beds/baths, etc.) but cannot calculate for objective data (quality of kitchen cabinets/counters, size of bedrooms and bathrooms, view out the living room window, etc.).You should study the market yourself.

This will reduce your risk and cash invested and if something goes wrong you wont be bled dry with never ending repairs.

Quote from @Ricardo Polanco: Good evening everyone, I am evaluating the possibility of buying a multifamily property in Scranton, at this moment it has 2 apartments that only need cosmetic repairs and it has a big 2nd floor unit that needs a full repair.

Expenses incurred before the property is in service are considered capital expenditures and must be added to the property’s basis rather than deducted immediately.This means costs like rehab expenses, repairs, and other improvements made before the property is ready to rent are added to the property’s purchase price and can be depreciated over time once the property is in service.

@Kris Lou Be careful with agents as 95%+ of them really only know how to handle owner-occupied transactions.We don't do biz in Indianapolis, so this is unbiased info we hope you find useful:Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I'm SURE you mis-spoke and meant to say, he's a close friend that I am trying to help but it was not my intention to "fix his credit".Debt Relief and Credit Repair Scams"The FTC has brought scores of law enforcement actions against these bogus credit-related services, and the agency has partnered with the states to bring hundreds of additional lawsuits"SOME CASEShttps://www.ftc.gov/news-events/topics/consumer-finance/debt...Financial Education Services (August 5, 2024 )Panda Benefit Services, LLC., FTC v.

This cushions potential value drops.Syndicator vetting: Only partner with syndicators who have a strong track record in different market conditions.Market and asset class knowledge: Understand market cycles and the specific real estate types (multifamily, industrial, etc.) you're investing in.Avoid chasing trends: Just because a market or asset is “hot” doesn’t mean it’s solid.You’re right that this approach doesn’t cap your upside, quality diversification can still generate huge returns while managing risk.Best regards,Drago

You may not get the same tourist volume as Pigeon Forge, but you’ll attract a more consistent, quality guest base.If you're leaning toward an MTR, healthcare contracts and university housing demand will give you a steady stream of tenants.
