I'm looking to purchase a single family home as an investment property (buy and hold strategy).

My goal is to buy a house in the area and house hack the remaining rooms.

I rehab and also buy and hold.

Alternatively, your brother could buy your share, which would result in capital gains tax for you on the difference between your share's original cost and its current value.

I know it’s no longer legal to do wholesaling in SC but let’s say you have the money to buy the property and you can turn it around.

Do you want to be solving tenant issues, buying properties, problems at work, etc. 

According to NYC, STR is hurting housing affordability just like normal people can buy a house or condo near the Time Square and Madison Garden. 

Buy and large I manage these rentals and we think of it as my side venture, not his.i already have the LLC but my tax guy won't file the rental in the llc because he says I need more than one rental and probably a Different kind of business entity.

There are no problems being a landlord , just buy a property take the first renter that applies and rake in the cash . 

Ignore seller finance for a second...Can you buy a house, put 20% down...yes.
