Our reno was shut down for a few weeks, all open houses & showings were required to be socially distant, and with all the unemployment the buyer pool was (in my opinion) a little reduced.Nevertheless we got it done!

I plan to create a regular LLC, like @Paul Moore suggests, with the aim of pooling resources to create an investment vehicle with people I have existing relationships with.

In the event I need cash, I could easily sell one (or all) of my SFH to EITHER an investor or an individual buyer...quite simply, the buyer pool is much larger.

Rent rooms, turn it into AirBnb, liquidate their "stuff", rent garage spaces to people with nice cars, rent backyard pool for kids birthday parties (just saw that on facebook marketplace), if it is in the right place turn it into co-working space, turn it into a home school, turn it into group housing, turn it into a rental.   

Combine this strategy with buying a property that needs rehabbing and the money you could get out at refinance could also fund your next project.I'd be more hesitant on Town Homes because they sell as individual units, but still share a wall with a neighbor, which to my way of seeing things, limits your tenant pool somewhat.Best of luck whatever you choose!

Why limit your qualified tenant pool?

Here's a chart of the research they did.

Right now I kind of want to keep the AZ home for the decent monthly cash flow and yearly tax benefits, but I would also like to use it to sell and possibly leverage more moves closer to me and be able to move back out on my own to owner occupy a VA loan and make some moves with that with a much larger pool of cash to work with comfortably.

However, just realize that not everyone has FB (I don't even have it), so there will always be a segment of the rental pool that you're missing if that's the only place you advertise.

I need to fully furnish it, and do pavers around the pool.
