I have a good relationship with a commercial realty company that is interested in referring business to me as I have taken care of their clients in the past when working for someone else.

The 4plexes will qualify for 30-year fixed loans, assuming you qualify as a residential borrower. 5+ unit properties require commercial loans, the interest rate is typically only fixed for 3-10 years, make sure you're on the longer end of that.

It’s heavy on commercial rentals and has very few residential properties.

Do you want to own residential, commercial, industrial?

Capital Realty, Home River Group and Reedy and Company are really good too.

I love residential construction, and it’s been a dream of mine to start owning property and achieving financial freedom.

Most residential sales utilize the Comparative Market Analysis approach- find lessons on that, I'm sure there are some right here on BP too....feel free to reach out for specific inquiries, I'm an open book

As of now, the current owner splits the income 50/50, residential/commercial, so the expenses for the MHP are essentially 50% (if that is right?).

We have an offer in on a mixed use property with one retail space, one residential apartment above and two office spaces.

I recommend a Post Compliance Lead Determination (PCAD) every 5 years or so.Here's the law (emphasis added by me):460.100: Duty of Owner(s) of Residential Premises (B) Whenever any residential premises containing dangerous levels of lead in paint, plaster or other accessible structural material undergoes a change of ownership and as a result a child younger than six years old will become or will continue to be a resident therein, the new owner shall have 90 days after becoming the owner to obtain a Letter of Full Compliance or a Letter of Interim Control, except that if a child younger than six years old who is lead poisoned resides therein, the owner shall not be eligible for interim control, unless the Director grants a waiver pursuant to 105 CMR 460.100(A)(3).
