Many thanks in advance,Victor Talking with my friends contractors in the area... some of this contractor offered very low price for their projects betting to build many units and market changed and they simply started to file bankruptcy... when comparing cost it's common you will find higher costs ... been in this market last few years, houses will start to move again in the next months in a normal cycle (not pandemic cycle) , if you're goal is getting long term rental in place for delay gratification...

I know a few of them personally and are willing to help everyone out no matter the age.

My husband and I live in two different cities with 2 houses.  

I am here to learn, connect, and hopefully grow both personally and professionally.

Your brother-in-law’s 10% ownership won’t affect your ability to claim this exclusion on your portion.Unfortunately, the option to roll proceeds into another property (like a 1031 exchange) only applies to investment properties, not personal residences.You’re likely eligible for the exclusion, but I recommend confirming with a Tennessee tax professional for any specific state tax issues and to verify your status with overseas residency.Let me know if you need more guidance on this or related financing!

Open houses, virtual tours, or property seminars/webinars.

We recently purchased our first house in OH, far away from our home in CA. 

My wife and I are still in the 'learning phase' as real estate investors, but we know for sure that in the next year (a) we will be converting our primary residence in to a rental, and (b) buying another house that will be our primary residence for 1-2 years so that we can qualify for an owner occupied mortgage.
