You're going to be living in a job site for a year or two, and by the time you've built the house you love, you'll sell it.

Then the plan is to sell it in 3 to 5 years to find a better rental market.

i have a very unique situation with a seller, that i need some assistance with.The owner of the property would like to sell; he has it as a rental arbitrage and that guy is renting out the 3 units.

.- Buyers earn a reduced yield but hold a valuable option.Much in the same way that equity yields are reduced in up markets when bought with put options.How often do you buy/sell debt with put options?

I am considering an investment in a commercial property with plans to improve and sell it within 4-6 years.

I am in the middle of a transaction where I am selling my condo, however I just found out our complex's insurance had changed recently and does not cover 100% of replacement costs due to a recent claim (last year).

Lastly, grouping properties in 1 LLC can potentially have unfavorable tax consequences when not selling  “substantially all” of the activity (ie selling only 1 SFH of 10). 

Anyone familiar with the process of buying / selling small residential care facilities (RCFE)? 

Some gurus go as high as 70%, IMHO that is too high, leave some cushion for your private money people to sell in case you get hit by a bus.

If you do not have enough equity in the home you may want to sell it to break even or 1031 exchange into a property with a positive cash flow.Unless you are in California there are multiple States or Counties to buy a good investment property that can cash flow.
