The key is to show the long-term benefit, including both the steady income and the future sale profits.If you put together a clear proposal showing the return on investment (cash flow + equity appreciation), it could be a compelling case to bring in a new partner to buy out the current one.

My current partner isn’t as enthusiastic about sharing the building with a tenant but does see the immense benefit to having rental income to help offset expenses.

This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their successors in interest.

If you have any VA benefits left (definitely check into that) I would try to use them and maximize that benefit. 

It appears that you have a complex structure already suggested to you(PM company, S-Corp, Investment LLC, etc).Who suggested this structure to you and what did they say was the benefit for setting all these companies up?

Then a rent up phase interest only.

Your strategy of re-marketing a 3-bedroom plus office as a 4-bedroom home office is a smart way to boost rental demand and rental income without major renovations.One insight I’d add is the potential benefit of exploring cost segregation studies once you build a larger portfolio.

Theres many benefits being well capitalized. 

I'm already stuck in phase one of deciding what market to focus on and get overwhelmed when even deciding where to start my search.I guess my questions to you all are:  1.

I didn't phase that correctly and should have put an emphasis on "Traditional Sale".I am willing to sell but want to do it "creatively" - if you will - to generate funds and positive cash flow from the note I would hold against the property.
