Thank you,Phil Don’t have any experience with the mentioned mentors, but I do have 45 years experience in commercial real estate investing.Flipping (wholesaling) commercial properties require the same base of knowledge (real estate principles, real estate law and real estate finance) that is a foundational requirement for flipping residential properties; PLUS, extensive knowledge of the commercial property TYPE one is trying to engage with, and extensive knowledge of the local real estate market for the subject property type. 

How did you finance this deal?

Hi David,some credit unions may offer financing for properties held in land trusts, but this varies by institution and state regulations.

My wife and I own it together, but i may be able to buy her out and keep it as a short-term rental without spending all my personal capital.I’m looking for advice on financing options, buyout strategies, and any creative solutions others have used in similar situations.

I found a way to get it financed.

Hi Kanaam,To start, focus on financing—U.S. lenders may require higher down payments (often 25-35%) for foreign investors.

Additionally, FHA usually isn't the strongest type of financing and sellers don't like it as much because there's a lot more financing restrictions and the house needs to be pretty much turnkey.

The best option is securing financing that allows the LLC to buy the new property, as commercial or portfolio lenders may accommodate this.

However, you could buy a property with seller financing.

Life changes made it necessary to find a new living arrangement and if I'm going to move then why not buy and utilize financing for owner occupied multiplex?
