I personally buy buildings that either have limited commercial exposure in relation to the total units or building SF or alternatively buildings that possess commercial spaces that are large enough where placemaking can attract amenity tenants that benefits my residential real estate in close proximity.

It’s not necessarily commingling the entities to have them all as additional insureds on one insurance policy if there is a valid business purpose (think general contractor in large construction) but in this case it goes to an argument that they aren’t really separate entities.

I also think there will need to be a solution found in the middle ground because there is a value that buyer agents provide to help buyers navigate the legal complexities, and I'm sure that a large portion of buyers are going to chose not to have an agent in order to save money.

The Fed only controls short-term interest rates, and mortgages are based on longer-term rates which are largely at the whim of the market.So, if a refi makes sense today, I would refi today.  

Hi all,We moved into a house that had a large utility shed.

Of course like any large project there was ups and downs but I don’t want to write a book.

( commercial property is  >  4 unit or a business  type property ) .....if you are trying to buy a rental home ...with that  income / debt / credit profile  and a  large enought down payment - it appears qualifying should be OK 

I have lived in Puerto Rico since 2020 and I have invested in fix & flips, bed & breakfasts (2), a hotel, a triplex, a villa, a commercial complex and a large land development.   

I'm telling my commercial clients to stay well away from downtown if they're going for large residential because there's a good chance everything there will continue to reduce.

Looking at AirDNA results, my biggest concern is occupancy rates, most of the calendars I look at have large gaps in them, and when you spend close to $500/sq. ft at current prices (in STR-designated areas), your property needs to rent well above 80% or you charge crazy nightly rates.We've also seen very few property management companies that charge less than 25% there (and 25% is rare), and some STR neighborhoods require you to use their designated PM (Desert Colors only allows Red Rock, and they are at 40% commissions - ouch!).
