Such tenant-occupied real estate sales have added complexity and risk and must be properly navigated

Investors,I am currently interested in looking into a single unit apartment, which would be managed under a larger, apartment complex - to which I would not own. 

Remember that one example somebody provided on here awhile back that was an overly complex deal structure where a bunch of people made money off the transaction, when it was basically just a simple flip made ridiculously complicated and less profitable with a bunch of extra fingers from “the community” in the cookie jar?

While they are suitable for investors with little to no experience, they can still be highly profitable when managed correctly.Starting in a beginner-friendly investing niche is a great way to learn the ropes before taking on more complex investments.

For example we on residential sales side we focus on buyers who invest in particular town - like Newark NJ; for apartment complexes - we buy NorthEast.

Sorry for a rather long post, but I have been overwhelmed with the complexity of the tax subject, and want to strike the best decision. 

I had a 42 unit complex that was all section 8.

Alexander,Given the complexity and technical acumen required for commercial RE development, you will need to learn from others. 

This gets really complex quickly….  

With rates today you'd never cash flow.I just put an apartment complex under contract that's in a super hip area of Houston.
