I recommend having a contractor walk through the property before submitting your offer, or you could make your offer contingent on a contractor walkthrough.

Quote from @Kathy Grossart: Can a non-accredited investor in an already established SDIRA, within a 506(b) multi-family syndication, do a 1031 exchange to another syndicated property (with same operators), if the new 506(c) offering required investors to be accredited, and the investor is not? 

A mid-term rental could be an great option during the 6-7 months you're away since it appeals to traveling professionals, remote workers, or individuals relocating and offers stable income without the constant turnover of short-term rentals.

The views are breathtaking and offer some of the most dramatic combinations of beaches, dunes, rivers, lakes and mountains.

I've found that CPAs that focus on a niche area such as real estate rather than offering general services to everyone are typically much more knowledgeable about real estate tax incentives.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Do not offer to pay more rent ever to make the deal happen.   

I second @Erik Estrada Chase offers great programs for business, multifamily, and conventional loans for commercial properties.

There have been brokerages offering flat fees and failed.

With the capital and experience to offer I've seen this work well as a joint venture.
