The pros of it are ease of process, so little time/effort required on the buyer's part, money in your pocket starting from day one, and so much built-in expertise to take a lot of the risk out.

Most Realtors do not understand the wholesale model.  

So I approached the agent who actually sat in the model suite and also dealt with the walk-in buyers. 

The current tenants have been in the property for years (the upper for 4 years and lower for 2 years) and have seemingly been model tenants from talking with this guy over the years.  

@Brent Mattison pretty sure this is not the forum to discuss Estate Planning but here is a glimpse of what you could possible do.Disclosure: I am NOT an Attorney, CPA, Accountant, Estate Planner or any other related Professional and Individuals should AWLAYS seek out the advise of licensed professionals in the related areas of expertise prior to embarking upon any endeavor.It all starts with your S-Corp and from there you can put together 401ks for each member of the Family (Company Members), HSA Plans and put everyone (see age restriction below) on payroll. 

I walked a new build - model home - with friends back in November who were considering purchasing a new home in the subdivision.  

@Dave Bicket your question pretty detailed and would require specific expertise.

However, all either lack a good history, or lack specific expertise in real estate.

The only question is how much variation you can expect from your model (which is all it is).

I would like to ask the entire BP community about your advice/suggestion/feedback based on your real estate/tax expertise in a dilemma of exit strategy my business partner and I will have to deal with our properties.Back in a couple of years ago, we bought a 2,100 sq ft resident property with an adjacent empty land in same size for $400k.
