Its size and layout make it ideal for long-term cash flow, and the demand for updated housing in Drexel ensures strong tenant interest once improvements are completed.

Given the size of the transactions generally offered on crowdfunding sites, there aren’t enough secondary trades large enough to make the economics work systematically (besides the regulatory constraints) for Broker/Dealers to be incentivized to help LPs to redeem their positions via a sale/transfer to a new investor before the end of the investment period. 

In the second drawing, I had removed some portion of that wall.

Others 15 yrs, etc.So we depreciate a portion of the asset costs faster.We do the study and get dollar amounts assigned to different parts and different schedules to front-load depreciation.Now you can get 5 or 6% of the value as a deduction in the early years...But wait... there's more.Bonus depreciation allows you to deduct a certain percentage of cost in the first year an asset is put into service.Anything that is on a schedule of 15 years or less...So the doors, sidewalks, HVAC, walls, latches, curbs, security, gates, etcA % of this stuff goes in Yr 1.For years 2015 through 2017, first-year bonus depreciation for these items was set at 50%.It was scheduled to go down to 40% in 2018 and 30% in 2019, 0% in 2020.But then the Tax Cuts and Jobs act moved this percentage to 100% from 2017 to 2022 and 80% in 2023 and 60% in 2024.Its not uncommon to allocate 30% of an asset cost to items that can be depreciated on a 15 year or faster time frame.So now 60% of that 30% of your asset's cost can be depreciated in the first year, excluding land.Pretty great.This is how real estate owners, investors, and operators make millions and pay very little in taxes compared to W2 employees.They pay even less and can offset other types of income if they are an RE Pro.

You can 1031 exchange a portion that makes sense for you (office right now is market specific and an opportunity if you know what you're doing), and take the other portion as "BOOT" and pay taxes on that portion. 

Pretty much whatever makes sense.My plan is for it to be a midterm rental most the year and then be there for a portion of summer to be close to my daughter.  

That's 3x the size of most Philly zip codes where real estate investors customarily buy investment properties.

I would probably put a cap on the size of the tank. 

You can try MyInvestorLoan.com, they usually don’t care if a property has a seller carry portion of financing in 2nd position. 

Spend LOTS of MONEY on mass marketingThe "rate locked affect" is limiting a large portion of the market and stopping transactions from happening.
