Questions & Concerns: 1.

Also want to note that she doesnt want to leave her kids or grandkids any of the properties.

Or can I just leave it as is.

However, Total Protect Home Warranty just recently did anything and everything they could to not repair/replace my HVAC on another property, so I don't want to end up with another company that will leave me to replace it myself again.

Someone has done something similar to what I want to do - building new mixed into an existing neighborhood - with five homes all side-by-side that average over $100,000 more than the existing homes in that area.Some of my questions are:Is there reason to be concerned that existing homes in the neighborhood have low values because of their age and condition, keeping in mind I want to build 9 or 10 and raise the level of the neighborhood?

(Hint: Follow Walmart - their customers tend to be your tenants)Conservative Underwriting - Leaving some "cookies in the closet" is a phrase my partner refers to when we are underwriting parks. 

- I was hoping that this could allow an FHA 3.5% for her leaving plenty of equity ($92K) to buy me out and cover the down payment and fees ($30k to me, $14k down, $3k fees).

If they want to leave, they leave and good luck getting the $$.

This is a concern I've been having as well.

My only concern is that, I would barely be breaking even on my current rental and my rate would go from 3.75% to above 5% The other idea I had was to sell current rental and 1031 into a multi family.
