Back to your question on maximizing rent: In general, the better the neighborhood the higher possible rent.

Originally posted by @Joseph Binkowski:Hey BP Community -I was sitting-in on an investor presentation for a syndication of an attractive 320-unit Class B MF development in a fast-growing market, and then I realized... it was a 506c project for accredited investors only [which I am not.. yet:)]So then I began thinking...How can I possibly get involved?

Is it possible to ask seller deliver the property vacant?

To be as fair as possible, I'll let everyone know who would have qualified that the unit has been filled and is no longer available.

I am ready and will be starting with property number one sometime, hopefully, quarter one of 2025 with a possibly 2 bedroom and 1 bathroom single family home; as this is within my current budget.

Take it easy i am still a rookie and trying to learn all things possible.

Interest rates decreasing a little more will be necessary to make this possible, too (DSCR loan).Also I will have another deal refinanced by then and gain about $70,000 of capital from refinancing that.

They hired an attorney who was skilled at assisting them stay as long as possible. 

This time around, I am looking for other possible ways to facilitate the vacancy of the previous owners.

It sounds like a single family house where you will be living in the house(personal use).Therefore, you may not be getting the tax benefits you think you are.Consult an accountant.I am not sure why your sister would agree to this as well, she is losing $170,000 in this transaction and she faces the possibility of you increasing her rent.You also have to charge market rent or close to market rent or it is all deemed personal use.
