Well then definitely fine a new cpa if he advised to hold real property in a S corp...

Are there property management companies that hold open houses.

Enough for a downpayment on a small multi-unit.I think I understand I can roll this capital to a SDIRA, but for a buy and hold plan I won't get depreciation if property is held in SDIRA.

I'm mostly interested in buy and hold for my first investment.

Hey Nick,Are you holding your duplex as individuals/sole prop or within an entity? 

By simply making the requirement to make vacant for closing alone with typical "time of the essence" language the buyer has the option to walk away if the seller hasn't met their obligation but can also hold the seller to the contract or work the deal further.

I hold a number of 4-plexes in my personal name and am considering selling them to purchase a larger multi-family property.

I'm unclear, are you required by law to hold his stuff for any amount of time? 

You do not generate losses of ANY kind from holding land, mortgage interest & taxes are capitalized2.
