What if the returns are better now, or when you retire and you get the majority of it?

They had major issues with lead times and hitting their deliveries which was annoying, but we have also experienced an issue with the large sliding window in our master bedroom (seems a seal exposure/draft issue) already within a year or so.So I won't be buying Crestline again, maybe not fair but that's my data point...

Majority of my rentals are at 2 mles or less.

Firstly, I know I’m allowed to be a majority partner in a brokerage as long as I don’t engage in daily or company operations.

BiggerPockets was thought up for someone like you, with your needs.In the culture I was raised in, there is a very old tradition to do absolutely nothing, make no major life decisions, until 40 days after a loss.

This caused me issues & delays with the refinancing not to mention if I had just wanted to hold the properties without mortgages and the lender died I would have had major issues.

@Michael Dooley If your heart isn't set on El Paso yet, I would recommend moving to one of the other major cities in Texas, like Dallas, Austin, Houston, or San Antonio.

It is very small, so going higher end would not add much given labor will be majority of cost.

You probably have major taxes if you sell at full market value so be aware of that too.Good luck.

The majority of the Cleveland multi family housing stock is going to fit this bill.
