I will be honest and let you know that your agent should be sending you personalized deal flow and providing numbers on why they think it's a great deal.

Hello AllI have a opportunity to purchase a 3 unit rental property. how should I structure the offer and what should be required in it.Does the seller provide a fee and clear Title with Title insurance, should the seller be required to evict the tenants before I purchase, what verifications or contingencies should i include. etc......ThanksJeff

The property will be strictly for investment purposes, not a primary residence.I’ve been looking into two potential financing options:Hard Money Lenders (HML) – I’m drawn to this option for its speed in closing, but I know the rates can be higher.DSCR Loans – This seems like a great option for long-term rentals, but I’m unsure if it’s the right fit for my auction property since it might need some rehabbing.I’m also considering purchasing through a land trust or an LLC to add a layer of protection and privacy.So, my questions are:What’s the best way to approach financing for auction properties?

A cash-out refinance on one rental could provide liquidity while keeping rates reasonable.

That's the opportunity.I also recommend engaging an 'investment focused' realtor (not the general residential ones) to guide you through the process and provide you with market intelligence. 

Hi does anyone have experience with providing direct STR stays (so not through Airbnb or VRBO) and charging, collecting, and remitting the local Chicago hotel tax?

This will provide some amazing long term appreciation!

I'm looking for the cleanest & most visible way to access payment history, see amortization schedule, tax documents, etc- much like bank softwares provide. 

If we can complete projects faster, we increase IRR and build trust.3) Market Risk- The longer it takes to complete a project, the more exposed you are to market fluctuations.This goes for all things Real Estate - BRRRRs, Flips, New Builds, Rehabs, etc.Real Estate is a wild ride I feel your pain, I've had this happen many times where the project is twice as long.

You could make this work ST, MT or LT, depending on how you approach it - the key with unique grounds is owner-provided upkeep and service built into the listing and what permits allow.
