Pick 10 people that are in foreclosure, and ask them if they want to sell their house or keep it.Correct. 10 out of 10 will say: "keep it".Now pick 10 tax liens people from your amazing tax liens list.Same equation, Do you want to sell or keep?

@Nick McCandless  I would recommend doing your own DD on anything turnkey investors says to you in terms of cash flow, type of properties they sell, and their turnkey model.

It seem like a great long term hold with the appreciation BUT I think selling would be ideal.

If you have buyers ready, selling your contracts becomes much easier.- Be Transparent in Your DealsHonesty goes a long way in this business.

Aha it seems like every time I sell one of mine its the time.

Most likely you will regret selling your duplex in the future, so seldom sell and try to find a way to keep it.

If this is a bad deal because of $1,500/yr in interest run away and have your family sell the property. 

I want to learn more. 4.99% for buyers is a game changer selling 6 new construction houses  You just buy down the rate for the buyer.

First - you have to mention what the syndication will do as that will have an impact on how you get taxed.Given that this is a real estate forum, it is assumed that you are investing in a syndication that will invest in real estate.Most real estate syndications purchase real estate in year 1 and have a plan of selling / exiting in year 5 or 7.Often times, the sponsor will get a cost segregation study which increases the loss on the K-1 presented to the investor in year 1.This may be important as it almost guarantees that there will be no taxable income from the syndication from year 1 to the year before exit.If the syndication does well and exits at a price more than purchase, it may result in a taxable income. 

I would recommend flying out there, getting to know the area on a detailed level  and talking to local investors (someone not trying to sell you anything).
