You are not going to qualify for active and will not get any extra depreciation.

Quote from @Dave Allen: Quote from @Zeke Liston: Quote from @Dave Allen: I'm in a bit of a situationMy wife and her parents are selling a duplex they own together.My wife is trusting me to re invest into cash positive investments.We could stand to take as much as a quarter million, and tax free since we lived in the property 2 of the last 5 years.What are some suggestions for markets that would provide cashflow?

Personally I like to build with cash to avoid the extra expenses, so I dont actually finance anything until its done and I have decided to hold it.

It's crucial to have a team that can provide both on and off-market opportunities, as Columbus can get a bit competitive.

Then there’s fraud or misrepresentation, where borrowers inflate project values or provide false documentation.

Similarly to what Mark Cruse stated above, provide dignified housing, respect your tenants, and either have a good PM or make sure you are updated on the regulations and best practices for placing tenants.  

I can't continue providing that service if the landlord takes over management.

Scope of WorkThe Subcontractor agrees to perform the following work (“Scope of Work”):Detailed description of tasks and responsibilities.Exclusions: [List any exclusions here].Materials to be provided by: [Contractor/Subcontractor].Reference drawings or plans: [Attach if applicable].2.

100% financing, no payments, financing in extra "cash out" money upfront so you can do a rate/term refi once you pay them off... 

I'm sure people would pay extra for some kind of "meal prep/private chef" type package in their living situation.You've got the right idea thought, but don't be afraid to reach...nothing wrong with dropping your price after a couple weeks if you don't get any interest.
