In exchange, I have first rights to sell the property through a power of attorney. once it sold, the seller get his agreed price, and I get the rest.

If there is anything I could do (drive by, analysis/insight on the area) I would be glad to help.

Need some honest input and insight on if I should go that route or just go the traditional route.

Can you believe how much time and information Tax, 1031 exchange, accounting, and financial experts give away here?

Does anyone have any insight on using seller financing to buy their primary residence?

Managing a property hours away can be challenging if any issues arise, but having a third-party property management company could help handle those situations and make things more manageable.I think you are in the right place to gain some insight on what would make you successful. 

Such insight can be obtained from an experienced local team.In addition to the city meeting the requirements I listed, you must work with an experienced investment team.

Generally larger commercial properties and shopping centers are easier to classify with hard and fast rules, but to the points above the residential areas really move very quickly and have way more nuance than most people care to admit.zip codes are generally way too large for my liking at least in my market to provide any kind of insights other than macro level economics but even then highways or rivers that cut through a zip code can end up with totally different trade areas.we can get pretty granular with cellphone data and with grocery center data to understand the trade areas and their true boundaries, but that kind of data pull is generally only cost effective for investors doing larger scale projects or developments, and honestly we still just end up getting on the ground and feeling it out, so I generally tell people that the money is better spent on a plane ticket and weekend trip in the area you are looking rather than any kind of "trade area" level data studies.and generally B class in 1 area means something different than another. 

While my husband and his ex make a similar income and do not exchange child support due to us pointing that out in court a couple of years ago, she actively request all financial documents that she possibly can and examines our taxes, etc. 

It's essential for me to acquire these skills as I navigate potential roles in the real estate industry.If you have any insights, recommendations, or perhaps know of specific training programs or resources for learning Yardi, I would greatly appreciate your guidance.
