If you are separate, can you take on other members/investors of your own LLCs (It will change the dynamic of the business, but might be necessary to raise capital.).

@Dennis Maynard aside from Jay, nobody has really responded to your question...Columbus, Ohio is arguably the premier investment destination in the US right now for good reason...an easy visual for where our market is heading.To your question, small MF properties are king here with OOS investors...2-4 units comprise 90% of all MF inventory in the area by virtue of being a popular build throughout the 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's before LIHTC flooded the market with larger MF complexes.....

This might help about  your listing question, try to Stage your listing, Use an eye-catching real estate photos, Highlight your listing's best features, Know your keywords and Stand out visually with a floor plan.Goodluck & make it happen!
