While not required to be done by a listing agent, I think it is negligent, and self defeating, for them not do this themselves before listing a property.

It stands for Delaware Statutory Trust and is a trust / pass through entity in which a sponsor (think big real estate investment corporation) buys institutional property (apartments, self storage, commercial, medical office, etc) and then sells interest in the Trust/Property to investors.

The most cost effective option is in my opinion also the best option .

I had my contractor fix the leak, pull out the wet and moldy drywall and clean the effected area with moldicide.  2 sqft of moldy area was found and maybe 10 sqft of drywall was removed from each garages in this duplex. 

I’m looking for a CPA to make the conversion to a Self Directed 401k or IRA and knew this would be the place to go for referrals.

However, if you're torn between 2 great options with one being familiar and one not, the familiar one breaks the tie IMO.If you're looking to use the property as a short-term rental, the following locations rank as the 5 best places to buy in 2018 (according to a recent report): Panama City Beach, FloridaChicago, IllinoisNapa, CaliforniaTulsa, OklahomaMemphis, TennesseeYou'll also want to consider any additional costs that may be required to effectively run the rental depending on the location and condition the property is in when it's purchased; including home upgrades, management fees, taxes, insurance, and utilities.Before you get in too deep, though, you'll want to check in on the local policies, rules, and regulations to ensure all of your bases are covered.

Hello @Leah Hill, From the figures you shared, you would be able to use these funds more effectively than your current home if you like being a landlord and having investment properties.

David Ahrens, I invest in Kearney and average 20% C.O.C and 7-9 cap rates, however I BRRR with very little of my own money and self manage.

@Gina M Coen You are mistaken, the so called "super lien" status here has no bearing.....an hoa foreclosure has absolutely No effect on a first mtg. 

So in effect, only about $50k of your money will be used and $500k of the LOC money.
