Lots of great educators on youtube for getting data to drive decisions.

@David Colthart Great decision David!

If you’re working with a tax professional ask them to do a tax projection for you with one scenario assuming you sell all 5 today and the other assuming you only sold 2 today.With the tax projection you’ll now have a good estimate of what your tax situation will look like and can make decision based on that.Maybe you can consider selling your portfolio and doing an installment sale, this won’t help on the depreciation recapture but it would help spread the gain over multiple years.Each strategy has pros and cons, if you want to rip the bandaid off an be done cold turkey (or warm turkey if you’re into that) there most likely will be a large tax hit but less headache holding them longer.

Have a 1960s 30 unit single story motel where we are coming up on some end of life issues: the cast iron plumbing is disintegrating underneath bathrooms, radiators are starting to leak, electrical is in poor condition...

I want to go over all the info I have and see if people have suggestions on what else might be available or what I can do to make better decisions. 

That will allow you to make a more informed decision about how you want to have the LLC set up for your unique situation.

If you're looking to build up capital more quickly, flipping could be a viable option.Best of luck with your decision—whichever path you choose, you’re on the right track!

My default decision is LVP unless I have a good reason otherwise.

Eventually I realized I needed hard skills and went to grad school and got a M.S. in Business Analytics and it was one of the best decisions of my adult life.

If you become too friendly as neighbors that could impact your decision making as a manager of the property.
