The guy who runs it lays it out like this..1-5 rentals you are still doing okay, have more stuff come up between all rentals the closer you get to 5 or at 5.

Is it like the following:a)  Make an offer on a 5-unit that the Seller acceptsb)  Do my inspections, come up with gameplanc)  Present the lender with final gameplan, once approved then proceed to closing & get the keysd)  Have XX days to convert to a 4plex?

Love that you’re thinking ahead—getting your income lined up now will make buying way easier.Lenders want stable, verifiable income, so a W-2 job in Arizona is your best bet.

To be fair, it has only been up a week. 

@Kristian Forbes Sounds good, same to you if you're ever up in the St.

A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.Consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for an accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

We do ground up construction of 3-4 units in the urban core of Columbus for investors all over the country. 

We are asking the current tenants to leave as the property is not in optimal condition we like to have our rentals and we would like to fix it up to increase value and rents.

Some people will push to get the maximum, even if it means they may wind up with nothing. 

My cost wont necessarily be the same or comparable as I GC my own projects and have trade skills.
