For example, I hate to sell anything, but I am selling two properties to raise funds for a new primary that meets my goals.Study the market and really lock in what it will rent for.

Which is very complex and costly and likely warrants professional help.Now, if it's just you and your spouse, then your 2024 tax preparation is likely relatively straightforward:- you will create a Schedule C on your personal tax return- you will NOT report any costs of purchasing the property or its rehab, not in 2024- you will report your business overhead expenses such as marketing, driving, technology etc- you will end up with a business schedule showing zero income and some expenses - not breaking the rules but potentially raising an audit flagCan you do it yourself?

My duplexes already at market rent and only exsecting 3% raises each year.

I am strongly considering Philadelphia as a market to invest in OOS because I was raised in Jersey and I used to be familiar with neighborhoods in the city; I understand things have changed over time, however.

A “syndication” is almost always a capital raise for the sale of a security/investment.  

Now, people are fighting back to appeal the raises. 

How do you think the 2 relatives will feel about having their rent raised or being required to pay rent period?

Heck, maybe I’ll give the property manager (me) a 100% raise and an all expenses paid vacation 6 times a year.

However, there’s a catch—I’m looking to partner with an investor to help provide the capital needed to complete the deal (would need to raise around $200,000-500,000).

As a reminder anyone can open a new LLC or company under another name and start to raise money for that fund.
