Thanks for sharing your perspective—it’s definitely insightful, and I understand where you’re coming from.While I get that partnering with one exclusive buyer might limit your potential profit on individual deals, couldn’t there be value in the consistency and reliability of working with a cash buyer who provides specific leads/addresses and is always ready to close on those deals?

The system in my multifamily building is that we have individual fire alarms in bedrooms and kitchens of each unit - those alarms are not wired to the central system.

Each of those things individually can be done at one lender or another, but knowing if it can be done at a single lender is the difference between someone who knows what they are doing vs someone just quoting interest rates. 

Most “Gurus”, authors, advisors and experienced real estate investors preach obtaining seller “carry back” financing for property buyers in order to (1) obtain financing when they don’t qualify for a 3rd party loan (2) obtain financing when the property doesn’t qualify for financing and or (3) extend the “buying power” of their capital contribution (down payment) to purchase a larger more expensive property by having the seller provide a subordinated mortgage loan.That’s all and good, but why should the seller agree to finance the purchase of his property, instead of getting CASH for his equity?

In July, the U.S. commercial real estate market experienced mixed results, with property price gains slowing, particularly among individual investors.

It's not liked by most Building Departments because it puts substantially more occupants in a building and each with locked individual quarters and highly taken advantage by slumlords creating fire hazards.

Building permit lists are public records that document permits issued by local government authorities for construction, renovation, or demolition projects.

Personally I would try to sell them all individually, as many unoccupied as possible.
