Some start with an offer then change it after you call them.

Second, even after running comps if you want to be on the safe side contact a local HML.

After the remodel I plan to occupy this property.

Looking for state income tax free properties and a possible move for myself to a state income tax free state as well.

In most cases they will try and help where they can.Not saying this is right or wrong but I had a similar situation with a property and after getting past the underwriting and securing it I went to the city (Atlanta) and said I just acquired the property, realized it was a quad that was converted from a duplex sometime in the distant past but the building was still zoned as a duplex and wanted to go through the process of having it moved to a quad.

While living there, we'd like to live for free, and after moving out, cashflow at a net amount $500-1000 and have a property manager manage it for us. 

Then compare against potential rent, subtract vacancies (5-10%), subtract property management (8%), subtract maintenance (8%) then subtract insurance and property taxes.

After that it’s “full” rent.

and that the relative supply will drop precipitously, after '25 leading to a new golden age in multifamily by 2026 and 2027.

My properties in 2 states account for about 80% of my cash flow, but the 4 SFH I have in Birmingham account for only 20%.I don’t want to sell as I’ll incur lots of tax (as they were part of a 1031 in the past), but wonder any strategies like seller finance, etc that could possibly result in higher returns on these properties.I am curious what other BP landlords do when a few properties in their portfolio aren’t pulling their weight….Thanks!
