I officially moved here years ago before investing but I’m wondering for my family whether it’s a good idea to have them invest in my markets here so if there are major tax/regulatory hurdles that would make this unreasonable.Thanks to all!

I see nothing unreasonable about the requirement.

My biggest hurdle has been securing financing to work on multiple projects simultaneously.  

While blanket loans often cap at 4 units, there are some lenders who may be willing to consider both properties together if they understand the full picture of your deal.Regarding your idea of separating the single-family sale from the multi-unit purchase, it’s not unreasonable to ask for the purchase price adjustment, especially since the single-family home is already discounted in the package.

I'm still on the fence with two hurdles.1.

Do you see blockchain and smart contracts as the future of how we deal in real estate, or are there just too many hurdles to get over?

I’m trying to get a better understanding of the unlevered IRR hurdles SFR / BTR investors have for value-add improvements.By "value-add improvements" I’m referring to upgrades made to a property that increase rent or purchase value, often including kitchen remodels, bathroom updates, solar and other energy efficiency improvements, fresh paint, a new garage door, finishing a basement, adding a deck, and updating flooring, to name a few.I’ve been hearing a lot of different reactions to this question the last few months.

Any hurdles or was it fairly straight forward?

In real estate, the biggest hurdles are often the ones you least expect—and sometimes, they’re as small as a crystal doorknob.Back in 2019, a simple set of crystal doorknobs nearly cost us a $25,000 deal on a home on Burgess Street.

Lastly, we’ll know enough to level set unreasonable investors and avoid burnout.The real investor-agent.
