Trying to narrow down which strategy will best suit our goals and lifestyle is my current focus, and I am looking forward to having meaningful conversations here on these forums.

I had the opportunity to work with Private Equity investment managers.

I would also be super conversative on spending.

I had a conversation with one of my investors yesterday and he was asking where is all the positive cash flow and the equity appreciation on our deals? 

This casual conversation turned into a unique opportunity, allowing me to connect directly with the owner and negotiate a fair deal before it officially hit the market.

Once you do this conversion it will be difficult to change it back to a traditional long-term rental. 

Do they have the necessary resources to stay on top of all the tax issues such as 1031 exchanges, 754 Step-Ups, etc.Feel free to send me a private message if you have any questions here.A couple articles you can read that will be helpful:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1206189-cost-...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1204912-how-t...
