Occasionally sell and 1031 into more attractive assets.5.

I'm new to the real estate industry and the seller financing option is attractive because I see the option to purchase an investment property with a downpayment smaller than 20%. 

If you have that, you can attract equity albeit smaller projects can be difficult and you will be reliant on friends and family relationship.

If you can get 15%+ returns and 8-10% cash-on-cash in a passive manner, reap all the tax benefits of owning real estate, and not have to manage the property -- that's more attractive than a lot of other investment options out there. 

For example, Bali’s real estate market has attracted interest from international investors due to its growing tourism industry and development potential.

B-, C+ grade and are attracting investors for MTRs)Lastly:Anyone have a highly recommended GC they use and would be happy to give more business to?

Orlando is a great market for short-term rentals, especially with its proximity to Disney, which attracts many tourists for sure.

.- Is there a kind of person who could help me with pre-sale improvements (roughly saying, to tell me what is worth replacing, improving, etc and what is not,1 to make the house more attractive for the buyer)?

Obviously I could use the money to buy more more more, but there's something attractive about owning the rentals outright, then saving the additional cash flow to get the next one and so on. 

The nicer the place looks, the more likely it will attract quality renters willing to pay market rate.
