I want to hang onto this tenant as long as I can since they are literally the ideal tenant however given that they may want to utilize a smaller lease term I need to insulate for vacancy and turnover cost.

Stacking would be ideal for us, start with a 2, then the following year acquire a 4 family and repeat.

We ideally wouldn't want to refinance our current properties as my interest rates are 3.75 and 4.1%.   

Communication will be key here what lever you two come up with is ideal!

That seems to be the ideal way.

Thank you, Dominique, I agree with you I will not ever need that reputation, but you thinking ideally from this buyers side, even though I am the most straight guy, just because when he presented at the property to show it for him, he checked from basement to chimney, and he persuaded me that he is an investor and will turn this mixed commercial property into a condo , he will just advertise it for this coming purpose , have his contractor come to check it and see what is needed to be done etc...,  in order to find tenants and get a high appraisal on it so he can recover his rehab money, LOGIC story righteventually, nothing like that happened and he is fooling around never ever talked to me again after siging the contract and I call his title company and they never respond or every have this property set for search nor a contract or escrow money ..., then I get to talk to them when I sent a cancellation letter, they answered and said we are not obligated nor the buyer to tell you anything or when we want to work on the title or what we will do in the propertyIf you were in my shoes what do you think of this guy and his people, plus the property listed with a whole different brokerage does not even have a website or address who is the bad guy then ?!!!

Hi Anastasia,I would like to agree with both @Salvatore Giancola and @Cassidy Logsdon; Windsor's low purchase price and rent ratios can create an ideal situation for cash flow.

Ideally that snowball will turn into a couple smaller residential value add buy and hold deals to build a system and team, familiarize myself with the rehab side of things, bring to light the things I don’t yet know that I don’t know, and gain some credibility.

Unfortunately it needs to be humidity controlled, so a house at this point is still pretty ideal. 

I look at:- Revenue/Profit by Channel to understand most valuable channel- Revenue/Profit By Month to understand seasonality- Booking Lead time to understand behaviours -- important to know to determine ideal time to drop prices- Days booked/month and average daily rate/monthI'll update if I start mining others
