I finally gave up, went outside and sat on the front steps waiting for them to finish their tour. 

Where are you looking to invest and what types of finishes (rental grade, high end, etc) are you going for?

We have been listening to the BiggerPockets podcast for the last six months and just finished reading The Book on Rental Property Investing.

This is going to be four highend two bedroom units when finished.

My responsibilities are project manager, general contractor, and overall construction of the project from start to finish including all permits necessary.

I am currently on HH#2 and have used Castle & Cooke Mortgage for both of them.

Question for BP... would you DIY finish your basement, costing $20k on 24 months no interest financing and adding roughly $50k to your homes equity, or spend those hundreds and hundreds of man hours instead building your real estate business with an end goal of being able to leverage $50-70k to put down on a multi fam property without having to go $15k in debt to create equity, but having no guarantee you'll make it as an agent.

My question to my fellow investors out there is what is your experience acquiring properties with an FHA loan that have partially finished units?

Without a cost segregation study, you would depreciate the $12M over a 39 year period, $307,692 per year.Within this office building, you have assets such as paved parking, specialty electrical, finishes, carpeting, landscaping, sidewalks, office furniture, electrical systems, plumbing systems, etc.

I have been learning and researching for a few months now and I have determined I would like to get into a house-hack before I finish school.
