Reduce the price, make the sale, split the profits, and re-start your life.

Hi Ian, we have 15 units medium term in our management portfolio listed in FF and Airbnb and accept 1 month stays, but I do think that 3 months minimum with 45 days notice is a good base lease term setting to reduce the frequency of occupancy changes.

Electrical contractor quotes me $5k but noted he could do it on T&M at a reduced rate.

If not feasible, consider increasing rent, reducing purchase price, incorporating future benefits, or targeting multifamily properties.

@Brad Herb Investing in a syndication via a Self-Directed IRA (SDIRA) offers tax advantages but comes with fees and limitations:Advantages:Tax Benefits: Gains grow tax-deferred (Traditional SDIRA) or tax-free (Roth SDIRA).Avoid Penalties: Keeps funds in the IRA, avoiding early withdrawal penalties.Diversification: Adds real estate syndications to your retirement portfolio.Disadvantages:Fees: Setup, custodian, and administrative fees can reduce returns.UBIT: If the syndication uses debt, income may be subject to Unrelated Business Income Tax (UBIT).Complexity: Strict rules; all income/expenses must flow through the SDIRA.Illiquidity: Syndications are long-term, locking up funds.Use an SDIRA if the investment is significant and the UBIT impact is minimal, especially with a Roth SDIRA for tax-free growth.Remember that RE, outside of retirement accounts, provides the biggest tax benefits.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

In other words, if one property requires a major repair, reserves from other properties can help cover the expense, reducing the need for each individual property to have a fully stocked reserve at all times.

Multi-family units are particularly good for this, providing consistent rental income and reducing vacancy risks.
