Consulting with a financial advisor or real estate mentor who understands your specific goals and circumstances can provide valuable insights tailored to your situation.

They have a blacklist which they're going to make public later this year but in the meantime a good mortgage broker can advise you on the specific buildings. 

Feel free to connect with specific questions. 

I am currently lurking often and reading/learning as much as I can about real estate investing, specifically buy-and-holds.

Best to seek counsel from your attorney and tax professional but if you are going to insist on saving a few dollars, best to provide more specifics on the type of partnership you are contemplating so you can get your hands on something that's remotely relevant. 

Also, there’s specific insurance policies (not simply landlord policies) that cover you for commercial use like STR.

So you can educate yourself to the specific neighborhood and home in the price range you are looking for.

Maybe if you have specific questions I can answer them. 

What I've shared is purposely vague as I don't have specific questions and am more interested in your reactions, thoughts and personal anecdotes so I can better understand and appreciate the timeline.Again, any and all comments would be greatly appreciated.

We aim to have a spread of at least 10% ARV so if we know we can sell in a specific area at 75% ARV - repairs, our MAO would be 65% ARV - repairs.
