For me, it's the opposite.   100% agree, that’s the main reason I’ll keep the place despite the dwindling cash flow. 

Hi Jason, thanks for pointing out that important detail that I missed in my post.I’m referring mainly to rental investment properties, whether it be single or multi-family or condo. 

I wanted to try my hand in self managing for the rest of this year, mainly for the experience aspect.

Figuring out market rent but then figuring out what the rent "could be" is one of my hurdles right now when doing analysis!

I have 2 separate Property owners where im located in Maine both looking to do joint venture deals where they provide the land and I get the project lined up and funded.

I was mainly referring to providing equity-based financing to those top operators to scale from 2+ to 100+ more quickly.

Main Account - Checking account to set up transfers or draw money from for mortgage, insurance, taxes, etc. and I get a Baselane debit card (physical and virtual)2.

Mainly buying up LTR'S for cash at a deep discount. 

I have a rental property that has a main house and an ADU on it. 

Main thing for you is: - Have both you and your buddy talk to the same lender and get pre-approved to understand down payment options and what your combined budget would be- Decide how you want title held (joint tenancy or tenants in common) - do a google search on this to see which option is best for you guys- START SHOPPING!
