Long story short we got our inspection back on the property we have under contract and are curious how much concessions or in what way we could ask for concessions due to the nature of the findings. 

I manage a couple of rentals on the side (one long term and one STR).

I had 3 different long term tenants in this unit over last 13 years, never had any issues.

My goal is to buy and hold a property each year.

@Bryan Field I have one that’s 35 minutes away and in terms of me being able to get there the distance is a factor.

You can also get a rental agreement in which the LLC pays you long-term rent for the place to your personal. 

It looks like reverse 1031 is better in terms of timeframe.

Can you refer me to any resources, or any search terms for me to chase on youtube university, so I can learn more about vetting operators in these spaces?
