The hold time is 1-4 years but expected to be done in 3 yrs.

Roof is 30 yrs old but structural and foundation is in good conditions and everything else is intact.

Little background on him, he’s 20 yrs old, and doesn’t have much family to support him with this decision.

The payback period is around 30 years, but the solar panels life is about 20 yrs.

I'll have to ask those questions - he gave me 5% for 20 yrs and a one time up front fee of $2,100. 

Ex: My cash flow is $1500/mth, so $18k/yr x 7 yrs =$126k. 

Tenants stay for 10-15 yrs.

We just sold a 3 unit to an investor friend, who at that close also got a discharge for a 12% mortgage on another property we sold him 10 yrs ago.

Thanks   By living in the mistakes market this last 2.5 yrs I can tell:- appreciation has stagnated as expected , after appreciation of 25-40% , is expected a slow down with appreciation in the 3-8% at least in zones and criteria I check monthly - rental listing started to show up as expected as well.

Would like to 1031 the cabin and assume loan on house but my monthly income is child support $1137 for 1.5 yrs and a lame income of $800/month.
