Upper 20s/lower 30s young professionals are so much easier- they've usually rented before, are trying to settle down and start a career, and know how to work a washer/dryer-- unlike many 18 year olds these days. o-O

In contrast, syndication via LPs flow like MF apartments are very tax efficient, tax advantages of property tax and mortgage interest deductions, accelerated depreciation making these very nice vehicles for putting cash in your pocket w/o a high tax bill during the hold period.  

And that effect tax rate is pretty high because it's marginal income on top of what's made from the standard J-O-B.

This thread was the most helpful in my decision not to form an LLC to begin:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/12-starting-o...

If you don't know how to do the A of O and OA, then hire an attorney.  

The unethical Realtor can be sued easily, and their company can be sued, and they probably have E&O insurance.  

Not really, they have "net listing" issues, obligations of disclosure with value, brokers would rather see them list and your wholesaling probably won't be covered under your E&O policy. :)

All the toilets or unstable and need new o-rings (according to the inspector) should i do that while there in there?

And how would you choose a broker that actually knows how to sell a tougher cookie w/o dunking the price significantly.Appreciate your wisdom!
