I have had to do a few evictions in CT and on a normal basis, it has taken me 3 months to go through all the steps and get a tenant out.

Winter normally isn't the best time to sell as the market is slower. 

We normally did land contract buy backs with the occupant. 

The plan is that is the skin I put in the game and then they will pay for the renovations and then I can either sell it and make a profit or keep it and do short or long term renting.

Don't be normal because normal is boring and easy and not how you make money in real estate.

Located in enfield 1 issue that i do see coming up is taxes i from MA and now in Ct and used to a normal w2 tax return i would really like to find a cpa or investor friendly tax pro to kinda go over how everything work to make informed decisions and threads or recommendations would be greatly appreciated

An STR is very similar to normal rentals.

My wife is very fair skinned.

Is it normal to not meet your cleaner? 

Except for the vehicle of a delaware statutory trust (which are not normally thought of as syndications) you must be a tenant in common with the LP or LLC that is doing the syndication.
