But 100% of 2 houses eliminates all the hassles and costs of a partnership, all the challenges of mixing business with family, and half of the maintenance headaches.

I don’t like mixing personal and business cash.

NYC/NJ is pretty tough but I can possibly find something close in NJI've been looking a lot at Yonkers, including owning one mixed-use there.

Ive read through past discussions started seeing mixed reviews has anyone had RECENT experience with them?

For now I would start to build (if you haven’t already) a mix of revolving an installment credit history.  

I assume tying up a whole crew for a small job isn't the way to go if you can work a mixed use commercial property instead.

Hello All,
I currently own a condo which I live in (sorry, Grant Cardone). It’s appreciated nicely over the three years I’ve owned it.
I was planning on either selling this property and 1031 exchanging into my first...

I’d provide them with unit mix, any operating history you have and a rent roll summary.This should cost you less than $1,000 and could save you multiples of that if your ARV is overstated.An appraiser does not have to inspect the property interior (or even the property) if they’re appraising it for you.  

They are a mix of duplexes and single familys total thirty some units.

This part is getting me all mixed up when I think about how to manage that aspect of owning multiple properties.
