Would you be better off selling it for a profit and investing that money into a rental that's ready to go?

Quote from @Jerome Wiley: Can the landlord ask a perspective tenant how many adults will reside at the rental property?

I'm a financial planner who works with real estate investors - we have a client who plans to renovate a Clinton Hill (Brooklyn) property that has been in his family for generations into a multifamily rental.

I have a situtation where the owner had paid off the house but owns 27K in back taxes and is afraid they are going to take it away from him and wants to sell it. 

Looking to get started in rental properties.

What I also enjoy is when people put out articles with contradicting view points and in six months or a year point to the - "see how correct i was", well yeah you placed bets on both red, black and green so you were going to be correct because you bet on all options.There’s a true story about a person who, during the late 1950s wanted to make money selling a stock market prediction newsletter, but had no verifiable experience or track record.  

My PM mentioned these folks and after some time we foolishly gave them $600 - $300 for our property she manages and $300 for her own property.

I’m eager to start my journey by investing in fix-and-flip properties to build capital with the future goal to purchase rental properties.

if you just bought a property with it, for example, you would likely lose money on it forever.

Does anyone else get daily calls from different people saying they're from Home Buyer's Inc interested in purchasing your property?
