I suggest using a service like Mayistay.

I would suggest looking into syndications as well.

I'd suggest making sure to get a good GC/construction company for repairs.

I'd also suggest considering a partnership if you feel comfortable with that in order to reduce the risk completely on you. 

Anyone have any suggestions?

Could you kindly suggest the best resources or methods to identify comparable properties in the area?

I suggest pegging a date, somewhere in Feb..

@Eric Lowe Prior to pulling the trigger on a Cost Seg study, you should evaluate 2 things:1 - How much net additional deprecation tax deductions a Cost Seg study would provide: Best way to get this is by requesting a free feasibility analysis from a Cost Seg provider.

I’d suggest checking out real estate networking events (local or online) like REIAs or BiggerPockets.

I would suggest shopping it around a little more until you find a lender that offers reasonable terms and has a positive reputation.
