Once you buy it you can sell it for any amount you ask, you own it, it's yours now.

Can anyone tell me if this is a genuine scam or is this a viable program to use a vehicle to start my Real Estate Investing journey.

My only regret is that I never considered real estate decades ago, but I look forward to this journey and the impact it will have on my family.  

Since you are not planning to hold them and sell them individually it makes sense to do this now or during closing.Cheers!

Now I'm considering selling it while it's still under mortgage and hoping to get top dollar for it.What strategies would you recommend to attract serious buyers and maximize my selling price in this market?

However, they may not be ready to sign right now.

Right now we're inquiring with our insurance provider to validate proper coverage, checking with our rental license if it covers uses like this, and working through what a lease would look like. 

Been one of my investors for going on  10 years now. 

now it's rented out, and you're breaking even each month in rent. 

My brother had access to the other $160K but ultimately purchased a 4-plex two months later using his own money instead.Currently, its written that if my brother doesn't use the funds then he gets 160k value from the estate extra, as I used my half already but then my dad suggested a 2% annual appreciation on that amount seems fair on the 160k for him, and now he believes it should match his home’s appreciation, which is roughly 5% per year.
