There was a post also where I believe Carlos made a comment that the LP’s should also take some accountability.

For those of you that have good w2 income and want to take advantage of employer matching (100% return!), how do you tap into that money to scale your portfolios?  The way I'm looking at it, if my spouse and I only do...

It may be that they are underwriting the property at a significantly different valuation than what you are using or that they feel that you or the deal is excessively risky.Great advice here, and a good HML will have an account rep or someone to communicate with you through the process so that you know. 

Foreign National programs sometimes require that you have US credit and most will want you to have a US-based bank account.

@Elizabeth KingYour accountant is wrong.

I’d hold the PM accountable for poor oversight—they should’ve been more proactive.That said, it’s also important to weigh the long-term relationship with your PM.

Here are a couple of ways you could structure the deal:Lease Option with Seller Financing: You could lease the property with an option to buy later, allowing you to rehab it while giving the sellers time to find a 1031 replacement property.Seller Financing with Deferred Payment: Structure the seller financing with no immediate payments, allowing you to refinance once the property is appraised, and the sellers can complete the 1031 exchange when ready.Escrow Holdback: Transfer the deed into an escrow account, giving you control without immediate transfer, so the sellers can take their time with the 1031.Third-Party Facilitation: Use a qualified intermediary to hold funds and facilitate the 1031 exchange while you refinance.These options allow flexibility for both you and the sellers.

When you pay cash for a $400,000 home and rent it out, your rate of return will likely be less than 6%.You could invest in stocks and earn 7% or better.You could put the money in a high-interest savings account and earn up to 5%.I don't understand why anyone would pay cash for real estate, erasing many benefits that increase the rate of return, while exposing themselves to the risk of loss (turnover costs, bad tenants, capex, etc.).
