Also remember, you can NOT identify more than a certain number of POTENTIAL replacement properties, and they have to be within a certain percentage of value of the old property, and you can’t file this identifying paper and then change your mind.

So this is still on your mind?

Would you mind sending your inspector's info to me as well?

@Mark Allen If you don't mind sending me a copy as well.

Then make up my mind on what and how I want to invest.

We recently did a loan involving a borrower with a mind-numbing operating agreement involving nested LLCs, retirement plans, and individuals. 

Though i would not mind a local house hack, my partner would not be supportive. 3.

Keep in mind a few things - many major markets currently have a glut of multifamily projects so you may be competing with large apartment complexes with amenities offering incentives in a competitive market. 

Knowing the seller's circumstances is very important as well.I also like to keep in mind my goal for investing in the property.

One other thing to keep in mind and consider is taxes.
