I would agree that RE prof status is hard to achieve with a limited number of properties.

Yes, we agree this is a PM issue / topic to handle.So we've left it for them to do so.They've already showed the tenant, from the contract language, why they are being asked to pay for this.Thanks again,

And right now, homeowners across the country are sitting on record amounts of it.Here’s a look at how that equity could be a game changer for you, and why it’ll flip your perspective from “Why would I move right now?”

I would like to hear your opinion on purchasing a property in another country, like Paraguay.  

We had to move fast and initially decided to sell it, the relator who was helping us somehow convinced us we should make it a rental property......... and let her be our tenant (insert face palm here) so since we had no real estate experience and we were already moved away, we agreed.

They then decided to scale, hired Joe Namath as a spokesperson (I know, right there that’s the sign this was headed for disaster) and went around the country drumming up interest in investing in their newly formed REITs.

@Nathan Harden- agree about OH ....I went to school at Miami U and lived in columbus area for a few yrs  ...many friends that still live there ......I live in Seattle proper ( near  Magnusson Park ...also  own  2  properties in Mason County ......father in law lives on  close to 10 acres close to downtwon Medina so we will be dealing with  figuring out the  best thing to do with this  as he gets  older ( he is  83 now) ...stay in touch

We agreed on $345k with the seller carrying 10% on a 20 year note at 5% for 18 months.Financing the deal went pretty smoothly, although a bit slower at first then I would have liked.

Make sure both parties fully understand and agree on:How profits/losses will be split Who is responsible for what (e.g., repairs, management, communication with the seller).Exit strategies in case things don’t go as planned.When you do find the right partner make sure to create a joint venture agreement that outlines all of this clearly.

What a country!!
