In WA were your at your statement is correct..

Yes correct I am looking to form an llc for passive investing.

Hi Tim,I would just recommend that your realtor stays in consistent communication with the seller’s attorney for progress/status.

So am I correct that my commission was due and payable on 3/20/18 when I produced a ready, willing, and able buyer?

But, if your ARV is correct then the Purchase must be much lower to make it work.Regarding seasoning requirements for commercial Refinance loan you are correct.  

I think you are 100%  correct that I can't dodge the depreciation recapture. 

I have been learning how to analyze deals from articles and resources on BiggerPockets, and could use some feedback just to make sure I'm doing things correctly.

I currently have 8 units (9th owner occ) in that triplex, a duplex (2009), and 4-plex (2014),  all in south seattle / burien areas.Seattle is way overpriced and IMO due for some kind of correction right now ;  I don't see how things can continue to appreciate like this,  and at least within seattle itself many smaller MF properties are worth more for the dirt under them than the structure itself just for the redevelopment potential,  which is unfortunate at least from the perspective of an buy and hold investment viewpoint and availability of decent and comparatively affordable rental units in neighborhood-scale buildings. 

Am I correct to assume that mold, heat/cooling system, and insulation inspections would all require specialists in those fields or should a general home inspector be able to asses all of these areas.

I would recommend teaming with a realtor and/or negotiator who can do the communication and negotiation with/for you, so that you are not turned down as a buyer by the bank.
