Reaching out for your experienced opinion on my current conflicting battle on whether to sell or keep.I purchased my very 1st investment property in Jan 2023- it’s a Mother/daughter.

In the family deals we have agreed that family always comes first and in the event of conflict we will just sell the deals.

I felt that the various service providers gave me preferred service having been introduced through RTR, and I had great experiences with everyone they recommended.Most importantly, I felt that I could trust my Matthew Seyoum, my Investment Strategist, to represent my best interests without any conflict of interest, and to provide sound advice after understanding my goals and needs.Time will tell how the investment itself plays out, but so far I’m happy with RTR’s service and look forward continuing the relationship.P.S.

Based on your question, you have two core decisions to make, and they may conflict with one another - where do you want to live, and where do you want to invest? 

I don't like the conflict of interest this comes with, but I can see the benefit as a buyer of getting access to properties that the brokerage is selling.

However, it could be a conflict of interest between the MLO and the sponsoring company.

So because of the conflict, I can't insure the maintenance company.

Since you mention you have a partner, setting up an operating agreement is key to defining roles, responsibilities, and profit splits to avoid conflicts down the road.A few key tips to protect yourself:✅ Use separate bank accounts and keep finances clean✅ Get the right insurance (general liability + builder’s risk)✅ Have a solid contract with contractors to avoid surprises✅ Always verify permits and city regulations to stay compliantI still strongly advise you to work with local professionals, I’m happy to point you in the right direction!

The one negative is with multiple tenants in a house is potential for conflict among each other but could be reduced by screening all of them well. 

There is a lot of conflicting info online in regards to these situations.
