This way the landlord is at a neutral position when they release the space again.If you own the land then you might want to sell it off to an end user a national,regional,or local brand, or to a developer.Good luck.

I recommend you hire someone to do the work so there's a neutral third-party providing the invoice.

@Kamika CamilienGood question and I have added a few links below for you to review the wholesaling guide and listen to a couple podcasts, in an effort to get the basic understanding of wholesaling so that you can move from neutral and get in gear with this niche!

They may be suited to your taste, but the more generic and neutral the finishes, the better the house generally sells.

I always want to be able to take a 15-20% hit on rents and be cash flow neutral on all properties.My goal has always been to build out a large portfolio.ConRight now I am realizing over 12% Cash on Cash return after the refinanceI believe rents will increase 10% over the next two years on the street it is located due to gentrification.Property Tax Laws in CA (locked in at a lower basis)The property is truly hands off since construction; I have great tenants and have no issues.Finding the up leg of the 1031 will not be easy and if it is more than 5 units it will have commercial debt (not as favorable terms).Fees, commissions associated with the sale and purchase of new property.I guess at the end of the day my decision to sell (if I can get my price, you never know) was based on taking the money now and investing in another value-add opportunity.

The most important thing for you on this deal is to make sure you have gotten neutral comps and are confident that if in a year or two you want to sell it, your able to without taking a loss.  

For decor, I would stick to more neutral tones assuming you’re in the mountains.

would it be a good Idea on seller finance deals to have a release pre signed and notarized and held at a neutral 3rd party to be recorded upon proof of performance of the buyer?

We protect and preserve the terms of the contract with neutrality and ensure that all requirements are met as well and handling the deposited funds (including local ordinances and state/federal laws).

I would rather buy a cashflow neutral home in a high growth area than a 200/month unit at the same price point in an area that has virtually no growth.For simplicity sake, lets assume a hypothetical 100k home where total expenses is 800/month:If that home is in a small market in the midwest and the rent is 1k/month, then the home cashflows 200/month and assuming no growth, (or limited growth) will generate $2400 per year, or $24,000 over a 10 year holding period, and the home is still worth roughly 100k.Buying a 100k home in a more desirable geographic location might only rent for 800/month (because the home is likely significantly smaller), and thus this home is initially cashflow neutral but with an annual 5% growth rate will easily beat the other home.
