I use Eric Kloth out of Redding and he is stuck with us for this and our future home buying needs. 

I buy to rehab and turn into rentals so Pinson, Pelham, Bessemer are a great fit for the areas and returns I'm looking for.

So depending on what your investment goals are and what type of properties (Class A through C/D) and where in the city you want to buy, that can directly impact the level of stability one can find within the market here. 

Quote from @Jaycee Greene: @Orlando Johnson Are you still looking at buying this property?

There is so much MORE work involved as opposed to buying a fixer-upper and rehabbing that!

Once you can define what you are looking for then you can create your "Buy Box". 

Buying a new primary residence has nothing to do with the capital gains exclusion.It is when you go to sell the new house down the line you'll run into a problem.

👀Park Hill golf course is no more - welcome Denver’s 4th largest public park coming summer of 2025 ☀️This 155 acre plot of land will now be home to picnic tables, walking trails, and other temporary features 🥾The biggest gripe I hear about buying in the city, is not enough accessibility to outdoor spaces, too clustered, etc.

Again, I do not want buying the multi-family home to block me from accessing lending for the second home when I move.- Does anyone see any flaws or can offer some improvements/considerations to the financing strategy of this plan? 

Your investment property - This you could do a 1031 exchange on and buy another property you intend to use for investment.
