Someone posted a very great mention about staying slightly under comps (as this helps keep up the good relationship with the tenant---because they feel they are getting a good deal) and it also gives you room to go up if you need to (for reasons outside of regular rental increases that sustain with inflationary demands).

Then I would use another version to file our regular taxes?

Just get a regular construction loan.

The first being that the shorter the hold period the higher the IRR and the velocity of money is increased.The second is that the majority of a sponsors compensation comes after a capital event (sale/refi) when they get into the "promote" or carried interest. 

I’ve watched wholesale deals regularly get bid up to near-market value.... you have to be very creative to find anything worth buying.

@Joel Loughrin I actually just read that you can have an unlicensed employee manage but they must be on w2 and they'd have to be a regular employee (you'd have to pay workers comp, etc) so I guess that's up to you but sounds more expensive than a property manager.

They may be willing to pay more, but its still a regular transaction. if you're doing this without brokers, definitely have a good lawyer to advise.

We have plenty of help regulars you'll see on these forums all with their own area of expertise (@mayer  many of which are more than willing to share their networks and inputs on whatever pocket you are looking into in/around the city.

If we’ve established an understanding of using a 401(k) for a real estate investment, the real thing I’m curious to understand is how a partnership can be structured in such a way where one of the partners, such as myself, is using their 401(k) but the other partner or partners are just using regular funding which they already have and may not necessarily need or want reimbursement?

So stop paying extra on top of your regular mortgage payments and put that into savings.
