Hello, bumping this thread to the top.

Investing close to home allows you to gain hands-on experience, learn the ropes, and be more involved in the day-to-day.

One other thing to keep in mind is that you have more financing options on 2-4 units than you do on 5+ units.

If you’ve ever walked away from a deal because you wanted 100% control, this post is for you.

But ya have to make some educated prognostications in life.Add this to the information your processing - What your talking about doing is eliminating around $4000 or interest expense (which is deductible anyway so really could be a real impact of eliminating $2800 or so) of debt in exchange for paying over $10K in capital gains tax (don't forget possible state gains tax as well).  

They initiated the counter offer process on the property, but the counter net is more than we feel we should go on this one. 

Google is your friend on this one.

Since I haven't been on BiggerPockets for quite awhile, the format has changed, and I'm having trouble figuring out where I can post a property I'm selling in OH, so interested parties are able to find it and make offers?

I did have experience operating LTR's to bring to the table, but even if you don't, it's not that much more complex.

Definitely more I would need to learn in order to make it work.
