I have a successful PM company in SF and a CA Broker License - but currently don't do any sales transactions. I rent and really have no desire to purchase in the city because it would be a downgrade of space/neighborh...

It is illegal to discriminate against a tenant based on their source of income so I would advise against even mentioning this in any way shape or form.Are you qualified to purchase expensive RE?

Maybe bringing your RE portfolio closer to 50% allocation.

I know RE Professionals get better benefits than non.

You could not change the rent at all, and they could still pay more by a re-evaluation by section 8.

How about take all that $ that would be burned in building new rural cities on federal lands, and instead create re-development grant's across the nation.     

I ended up buying 17 buy n hold houses since Covid and glad I didn’t listen to the experts claiming the sky is falling and RE prices will crash.

I would also recommend making sure the current owner is in good standing with the association and that all dues are current, otherwise that could become your liability post-closing.All in all, if everything checks out and the numbers work for you, condo/townhomes can be a less daunting way to break into RE investing, especially in a high-priced market like NJ.

As a tax professional and fellow investor, it’s good to have a great time around you Thank you Ben - I look forward to building a community of investors for providing the guidance to my journey on investments in RE.

If successful at the auction and you re the new owner, how do you get a current tenant out of the property?
