Rents have also been increasing.The area also has good potential for appreciation, especially with ongoing developments and improvements in nearby neighborhoods.

My potential partner and I have agreed to split everything 50/50 and I was thinking of holding all holding/cash to close funds in escrow and run it through my LLC, but would be interested to hear how any of you structured it in a way that protected yourself in the event that one partner turns out to be problematic. 

Partner Driven was interested in the Cornell Ave deal in Drexel Hill, PA, due to its high profit potential and quick turnaround.

I've been one of those buyers of $10K courses lol.

I am missing out on potential all-cash probate, short-sale, and auction deals because of cash restrictions. 

Quote from @Xavier Rueda: A new realtor trying to learn everything I canYou need to learn to ask sellers and buyers what they want out of the experience.

It can alarm you to any potential leaks. 

So this doesn't seem right to me...if I see "new construction" as a buyer, I:a) assume the home has never been occupied, andb) that licensed contractors were used to build all aspects to state code, to offset the lack of required inspections.I know homeowners can do their own work, but shouldn't that imply occupancy and be listed as previously owned home vs. new construction?

The downstairs has a very large room that could become potentially a studio apartment. 

Also, the insurance companies are fleeing Florida so I'm definitely not making as much as I would from selling while things are still good.Talk me off the cliff or push me over please.Hi Tim, I'd recommend that you sell the house and invest in a market that offers strong growth potential, affordable property prices, and less risk from natural disasters compared to Florida.
