I am an agent so it was simple to negotiate after being on the market for a while.

Question for agents.

I'm particularly interested in networking with fellow investors, investor-friendly agents, property managers, and real estate professionals who share a passion for the multifamily sector.I am eager to learn from the wealth of experience in this group and equally eager to contribute my insights and experiences as I navigate this exciting journey.

Usually, provided all the units are attractive, you would probably get more total rent. 

Same for tenants, sales agents and contractors.

Can someone provide some insight on how you structure your commercials loans?

Hello Carlos,I can help you analyze this deal, but you need go provide more info, what is the ARV, what is the purchase price, is it rent ready, are you going to have to do any rehab. 

My realtor is reaching out to the listing agent but told me the seller may have restrictions (unclear what the restrictions are) on changing the contract now since they are doing a 1031 exchange.

It was a relative who just got their license they also were the buyer's agent.

Even an agent won't typically do these unless you hire them to place a tenant.You seem intent on being cheap, thinking you have to be to save money.
