We found the N Cox St deal through our partner, Graham Lyster, who identified the opportunity and brought it directly to us.

I’ll start by saying I’ve heard doing this is a death sentence for resale but has anyone built a 1 bed 1 bath home and had any luck selling it?

My area refi and sell appraisals are not created equal.

You'll also want to negotiate a "partial release" with your lender for properties that you sell.

Look for a house you can ADU, BRRRR, or sell off a lot.8.  

I decided to us a 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange in selling the property and as I was moving my family from Balt. due to the crime, drugs and gangs.

If there is a value add opportunity then you get the option to pivot into a modest flip in the case you are need to sell due to regulations.Hope this helps!

We have a big decision to make -- should we sell or rent our first home?

I am just an average Joe trying to sell our house to investors (ski resort town three hours east of SF if anyone is interested) - I just wanted to check in and see: Is it common for an investor to insist on entering into a contract before they inspect (where they have 2 weeks to inspect and cancel if they don’t like what they see & if they do they will close within one month)?

But, with a negative cash flow and student loans around 7%, the math isn't working.We are considering selling the property (probably a private sale, so no real estate commissions) and paying off the student loans.
