Heck, if you approach it right, he might even be willing to chip in a couple bucks for it.

But I’m looking for advice snd information on how someone should approach an investor that is looking to start selling their portfolio.

I believe a more reasonable approach would be a written 30 days notice, noting the need to continue to pay rent as required for the last month.

Hello Ohio investors,I was inspired by this article to improve my approach to underwriting CapEx costs for buy and hold rental investments.

Like @Brandon Turner says in his "The Book on Rental Property Investing" about Landlords who approach their business like a hobby or a side project, "When this Landlord goes bankrupt, and he most likely will, you and I will be there to get a great deal on his property, turn it around, and start managing it like a business."

My approach will be to be 50/50 partners.

Sometimes with real estate investing you have multiple approaches and its really just up to your intent/strategy and risk tolerance as to decide what to do next.You probably should find yourself a good lender that will work out these aspects for you, i.e. your financing/loan options. 

One I purchased a 57 unit in Mentor Ohio at $2,000,000 in Aug of 2019 and with cap rate compression, NOI improvement, recent sales, this thing is approaching 5.5 million valuation at the moment and we ONLY have about 35% of the units that are not renovated.  

@Steve Vaughan I was in a zoom meeting with a BP member yesterday and I brought up the Lease to own question, you both agree on the seller financing approach and that's definitely the most logical.As for my IRA, it's a traditional IRA which I had for just over 5 years and considered pulling the money out and investing it into real estate for a larger return and to put "skin in the game" to jump start my business. 

So, I'd like any advice I can get about approaching a hard money lenders for financing.
