Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

We are considering building and holding townhomes but need to determine the costs.  

Quote from @Preston Dean: Quote from @Michael Ewers: Quote from @Preston Dean: Hi @Michael EwersI have had a few past clients from Cali call me saying "I sent post cards to home sellers and I have someone who wants to sell, can you help me with pictures and videos" I think their method was just mass mail and they got a few hits.

Do you hold any financial advisor certifications?  

Have the tenants take and send pictures of any maintenance items and video chat with the repair person as needed.If you ever get in a situation where you just feel like you can't do it or don't want to do it, you can always put a PM in place at any time. 

Find Brandon's videos on YouTube for the "four square" method of analyzing homes and practice.

I’m holding for the long term.

We decided to quit buying rentals to hold, and instead, the units that we typically would rehab and hold, we are going to rehab and sell.

Otherwise the hold up of the sale and going back-and-forth we wanted to avoid.Because it’s now on the closing statement, are these a deductible repair expense like it would have been had it been before closing that would normally just be under schedule E as a repair expense.Cheers.Since the seller credit is now part of the closing statement, it’s generally treated as an adjustment to the purchase price rather than a direct repair expense.

Turnkey, buy-and-holds, flips, or something else?
