A lender will give a little credit for a short duration off, especially in the same industry, rather than a long period of off time.  

You can sync them with AirBnB and they'll algorithmically  generate codes based on a guest's stay and issue them duration based codes for their itinerary.

Here are the costs to address the issues uncovered by these experts: 1.Wood floor and wall in the middle unit: $44,000 + tax + $2,800 for permit, but engineer report is needed for a formal quote.2.Roof above the middle unit: $8,000 + tax + $800 for permit + ply wood;3.Sewer line outside the building (see estimate): $7,365 total;4.Sewer line inside the building (see estimate): $21,663 total;The total cost plus 10% contingency is equal to $100,000 in repairs that I cannot afford to pay and still be able to fulfill my obligations to you and to the tenants that will have to be displaced for the duration of repairs.In addition, the appraisal came in at $275,000 that is considerably below the $340,000 number.Proposed solution: You will complete all the electrical repairs and ensure all three units are brought up to current code including the outlets.You will have the stucco repaired on the exterior that was damaged by the electrical proof.

Simple fact is that virtually no where has had the historical ROI of a coastal So Cal financed buy n hold property over virtually any duration between 3 years and 50 years (verifiable fact).  

It should state the screen has been repaired 3 times in {timeframe} and the tenant is responsible for all future repairs to that screen for the duration of the lease. 

You will be responsible for holding costs for the duration you hold title and are trying to find a buyer.Have you considered trying to get the property under contract with due diligence and then assign the contract to an end buyer?

Last, if issues arise, it may sour the situation between ourselves and the remaining tenants for the duration of their stay.

This better historical RE ROI is for durations as short as 5 years and as long as 50 years (probably longer).  

Thanks for keeping us updated for the duration of this project @Jason DiClemente.

My question is if I move my family back into the property for the duration of the deployment, can I still 1031 exchange it when we are ready to sell in the future or do I need to lease it out again prior to the exchange?
