I do not know your situation but are you possibly putting all your eggs in one basket here.

Of course this puts all your eggs in the same basket and a Financial Planner might have a fit if you suggested the strategy to them.Of course there really is no reason why your non-profit can't purchase the building, especially if there are multiple tenants, it increases the amount that you are able to pass along through you endeavors.

buy a little cheaper houses and don't fill the basket too full of eggs. 

Investors just have to realize where we are in the housing cycle and readjust their expectation as well as strategy accordingly since the days of low hanging fruits are well behind us. 

I don't think we're keen to put a lot of eggs in only a few baskets either, so I'd rather have 5 x $100K properties than 1 x $500K property.

im looking at putting the lot in my name. its about 10,000sq ft. so far ive called farm bureau insurance and got fed a huge line of bs. at first the guy tried to say i needed builders risk insurance when he found out i plan to build my own place. forgetting the fact i said i wanted to just buy and hold at first.then he said i should get renters insurance with the same company i have vehicles insured under. then add the property to that. no way in hell that is happening. i dont want all my eggs in one basket. an answer like that is an insult to my intelligence. he cut the crap when i said i could just put it in an LLC and cut insurance completely out of the picture. finially he told me they didnt have a product for that, then gave me that idiotic advice.im still waiting on a phone call from farmers insurance. i dont know why this is such a hard question to answer?

Personal Reference is always the best way to find quality people in my experience, so I'm hoping this will be fruitful.

I would say that in about 6 months we are going to be able to relax and enjoy the fruits of our labor now.

That way you don't have all of your eggs in one basket.

Then add at least 15% to that because total remodels can be basket cases.
