My wife and I own a single-family home in a top school district.

In my opinion, both have their pros and cons and neither is 100% superior to the other.

Considering that my parents and I are not Canadian citizens it adds an additional wrinkle to things as they or I are not able to claim this as the primary residence and avoid the capitol gains tax... a lot to consider and think about.

Property tax and Form 1098 is sent to individual and paid using my LLC account. 

My name is Christian and I am new to real estate investing and BiggerPockets.

My team and I are actively working on a hotel-to-multifamily conversion and growing our portfolio of value-add apartment properties.

My experience has been overwhelmingly positive, but—like any market—it depends on your approach, risk tolerance, and the team you have in place.Detroit is unique.

If you are moving from your SFR to another property, then you should be able to get a 5% down loan or even 3% if it's FHA.  25% is only if you won't be living in the property in my experience.

Just from my experience.

The only reason we don't qualify for traditional lending is because I took some time off to help my terminally ill father, and my husband has been in a commission-based role for less than a year (the lender said you need 2 years of history for that).
