Generally they will want the investor to be a member or have a business relationship with the CU.

We are lucky to have contractors we use regularly locally and get bumped up in the cue when we need work done because they know we are here for the long haul and will keep bringing them business. 

I would keep the property, take the extra cash flow & invest in more rentals/real estate strategies. maybe start another business. never sell the house unless i absolutely have to. 

I read the business news to find out about new developments.

Some tenants will shape up if they see the new owner means business (paying rent on time, etc.), so it's important to enforce rental agreements when you take over. 

I would consider the business uses of your home, the basement apartment is considered a rental property if you rent it out.

Our tiny little town implemented a 1% tax now.

So far, I've managed to build a really good team to support my business from agents and contractors to wholesalers and lenders.

I have access to others of like mind that can help me put syndicates together to purchase larger apartments.Outside of real estate, I'm busy as a CFO to a large dental practice that my husband owns that brings in capital for us to invest in RE... and I love taking care of my girls that are 16, 13, and 9 and teaching them all about passive income investing via RE.
