Like I mentioned to Eliott, I'm very young and I can't get a loan.

There gonna say it's all good, get this n get that, it's great. 

Things change and we get older and generally think the new stuff sucks.

I hope the remaining lots get sold soon and we get our refunds back.

Im wondering if other markets might be better, with somewhat newer houses and higher quality tenants?

If you really want to get rid of them, sweeten the pot by offering to return their deposit after you verify the unit is empty with no damages. 

I wonder if we all at some point revert back to LTR.

Gifting equity in a house may be more trouble than it is worth if you are not near the life-time exclusion1) Potentially having to get the property appraised everytime an equity is gifted2) Having a title company update the title every time3) Exemption of the gift tax return is normally for cash gifts below the annual gift tax exclusion, you may still need to file if you gift non-cash4) If there is partial ownership over several years, having to properly pro-rate certain items such as real estate taxes, mortgage interest and rental income if the property is a rentalBest of luck 

I subscribe to PropStream and Flipster and was wondering if either of these sites you use or you prefer a different program to find distressed properties and generate lead lists?

Essentially all legit buyers will get an inspection.
