So if I have an investor that wants to give me $250k and we can purchase say 4 rental houses with that money how do you structure percentages/payouts?

You only depreciate the structure value.

It appears that because these loans are structured like a typical loan (i.e. there is no “final” distribution of pre-tax retirement funds) I don’t think there would be any tax consequences.Mark Flynn CPA

Connecticut has a 6 month redemption period for tax deed purchases.The Connecticut statute specifically provides for an insurable interest in favor of the tax deed purchaser to protect against fire and physical loss to the property during the redemption period.

All of these work great as they coincide with investing & need physical offices which are of course housed in my commercial buildings. 

Driving for dollars is a solid way to identify physically distressed properties.

Eventually and maybe in our lifetimes these two markets almost connect physically.

What difference would it make if we structure it with a lower sale price and interest?

If I were to continue doing deals like this would it makes sense and an asset protection structure point of you to transfer my own personal equity into that of another LLC?

If you ask how much something costs to repair and he/she can't give you a ballpark number they either don't know or aren't confident enough to give you an answer.First things that come to mind that people may not think of:- Crawlspace or Slab Foundation - Crawlspace makes it easier to relocate utilities and do structural repair if necessary now or in the future.- Cost of work required based on current market rates (for example right now electrical work is very expensive in Charlotte metro compared to historical norms)- Are any code issues with the City of Charlotte or LUESA?
