The lease & deposit is attached to the property, not the individual tenants. 

Congratulations for all your hard work.    19 units is a major accomplishment as an individual owner.    

Let's say they have $30-$50k to invest, which is enough for them to get a loan in their name, and I manage/operate the flip and profits are split according to whatever JV we create. 

My goals are undecided yet as I would like to create myself a business plan first, however broad goal would be to maintain the drive I have to be successful in real estate.

I currently invest in the stock market but am looking for an outlet where I can really put my investments to work for me, creating a real estate business seems to be a good fit.

Hello All,In the past I have had issues with tenants applying to live in the apartments as a single individual.

I visited it a few days ago to create a scope of work and I'm working on the rehab estimates now.

The article is still relevant in the sense that the vacancy rate still remains at roughly the same elevated level (9%+) and if the post & local colleges were enough to absorb the inventory created by the Army & Air Force realignments, then the vacancy rate would expect to decrease - and that has not really transpired.

So let's say I have 10 leads willing to do seller carry-back sales this year, all at different rates (do they need to be tied to an index if each individual seller is only doing 1 sale?)

The first thing you need to do is find/create a GREAT (not just good) deal, then find out how you're going to finance it.
