experience: I’m on my 3rd flipage: early 40sday job: brand and web design/development retirement savings: noneI want to learn about buy and hold to secure having SOMETHING for retirement!

(Btw I can’t believe anyone would give that tacky designer wearing clown their hard earned money) Clearly incompetent like every other Rad employee. 

Granted, I have a 30-person construction crew,  a designer (my wife, so literally in-house), and a plumbing and electrical company that works on my stuff solely. 

To most people, that would mean nothing, but she has strong marketing and design background.

NO house layout is designed for maximum revenue. 

Ok, so I see this might have been a design flaw in the original build so there isn't much you can do unless you rip it all out.You could have it all scoped and see what's what so you can get an idea of what you are dealing with.You could comp the guests a night.

My role with this MF company is to manage the design, construction of the GC's and opening of the properties.

Assuming you currently rent right now, and you are buying the single SFR as a primary, the 3-unit should just be designated as investment and you should be able to use the rents to offset the payment (up to basically 'zero-ing' it out, on paper). 

Second year distributions rise to 5.27%, third year 7.27%, according to the projections.Those projections may be at risk, for many reasons: the recent huge increase in interest rates -- increasing the cost of loans and decreasing valuations, insurance costs have skyrocketed, real estate taxes are up, labor and material costs for repairs & renovations have increased, etc.On the plus side, the majority of the ODC funds were designed to be high value add projects with plans to increase operating efficiencies, add tenants and raise rents.  

Wrong Property Management ApproachIt doesn’t matter how good the people who are doing the property management are, if they are not using a property management approach designed for co-living, everyone loses.
