If you're comfortable meeting in person, I would follow up with an email outlining what was said in person to the tenant with the resolution of the conversation also in the email.

It's similar to how you report it for tax purposes in years where you aren't selling it, you report 50% (or whatever % is allocable to each side) as rental property and depreciate that 50% while the other 50% is your own personal residence and therefore is not part of Schedule E.

Last year we were able to connect an investor of a coastal six plex with our personal credit union and due to strength of borrower and property, they provided a non-member with a 25% down mortgage with a 25 year amortization on a property the seller was requiring 'cash only' due to the presumed challenges of multi family financing. 

Hi Ashwin,I do not personally know about this area, but I can give you some insight on how to go about finding out: Investing in properties near I-44 around 63rd and Kelley in Oklahoma City requires careful consideration of neighborhood dynamics, rental demand, and property condition.

As that will at least help folks that you reach out to know that you are a real person, with a picture and professional bio.

I'm up to 10 doors (including personal residence) and have six more under contract.

Personally, it's not for me. 

If the IRA fails to pay property taxes or insurance bills - you are then personally responsible, which would be a violation of the IRS rules. 

Our personal  house had previous work done but the piers were poorly done, and we noticed dry wall cracks and tile floor "separation"  about 2 years back.   

As others have mentioned, there is a personal aspect to doing it this way since it involves yourself, spouse, and possibly a family.
