Quote from @Darrius Lloyd: Hello everyone,My name is Darrius Lloyd, and I'm a 23-year-old aspiring real estate investor based in Northern Virginia.

Some lenders do a periodic search of ownership records of all properties in their loan portfolio.  

However, a common benchmark is aiming for at least 6-8% cash-on-cash return based on your total investment (purchase price + rehab + closing costs).Always factor in appreciation potential, tax benefits, and personal risk tolerance.

If you sell a property, capital gains tax applies based on each partner’s ownership share, and a standard 1031 exchange won’t work if proceeds are split, as the exchange requires continuity of ownership in a like-kind investment.One strategy is a drop-and-swap, where the LLC distributes the property to partners as tenants-in-common (TIC) before the sale, allowing each to complete a separate 1031 exchange.

@Mark Sullivan I'm based out of Rhode Island so not sure if my providers lend where you are located.Biggest thing here, I would look for a portfolio lender.
