You want the tile below the dishwasher so you dont have to guess the height and have some hack looking shims under it.

In highly appreciating markets, people may take the opportunity of selling their personal residence (where no capital gain is due below $250,000 for a single person or $500,000 for a married couple) and moving into a former rental property for a specified time period in order to turn it into their new personal residence, and thus avoid capital gains taxes.In order to qualify for this exchange, certain rules must be followed: 1.

Where I live, if I were looking at residential properties (below 4 units), average sale value would be anywhere above 150 times of monthly rent.

personally, i'd start with a CASH FLOWING rental.one that needs some repairs and that you can buy below market - over 30% and is in a decent neighbhorhood.i personally don't like the idea of SFH rentals - neighbhors don't like you very much no matter how well you/your tenants keep the property.but 2, 3 or 4 unit complexes - still residential - are nice for a few different reasons but for one - they're all under one roof.

Just make sure you can get it for 20-30% below FMV.

$10,000 below market--sold in a month--that brings you to $22,000.

The idea is they buy multi-families in a targeted community below FMV, resell it to you the investor at FMV and provide some management services and what they claim to be "cash reserves" but are really proceeds from the loan you take out.

New home buyers don't always understand that.In fact I have a brand new house on 1 acre I'd like to sell for about $25K below market value.

is that below market?

This would be a short term investment averaging three years, then the resident will purchase the property.I have not factored closing costs into the questions below, simply, becuase they could be really radically different.
