For someone who is going to be a hands own operator and rely on real estate as their full time employment in lieu of a W2 job, or foresees that transition at some point,  buying the entry level low barrier assets can serve a useful function.

I have explored a variety of online and physical side hustles, but now it's time to transition to brick-and-mortar as I build towards my dream of creating my own private equity firm.I am officially closing soon on the acquisition of an absentee gas station and laundromat business.

I transitioned to MFH via syndications and have put most all of my new money there the last few years as I got tired of the tenant headaches and also my ROI is as good if not better.. 

Their signup process seems fairly smooth.

I understand the importance of being a responsible and ethical landlord, so I'm seeking guidance on how to navigate this transition smoothly and fairly.Thanks in advance for your insights!

We would like it to use the equity to purchase the business but not sure how or where or who to use to make this a smooth, easy, single transaction.

@Mel Gardner Hi Mel, Transitioning your home into a rental property can be a smart move for building passive income!

On the bathroom window that overlooks her window, put some removal glazing on your window (there is a vinyl that you spray water on the window, apply the vinyl and smooth it out-completely removable). 

They got it fully leased up and everything has been running smoothly with $2k net income after expenses and mortgage per mo. on a property I put $180k into (rehab + down payment), so I'm very happy with the resolution.

That is especially true this first year of transition.
