Has anyone worked with these or other coaches they would recommend?  

Hey Kev, Id strongly recommends having a real estate focused accountant take a look at your situation.

In our previous example of $4k net monthly income the disbursement would be as follows: $4,000 Net income$1388 principal loan repayment to majority partner $1305 (50% of $2612) to majority partner$652 (25% of $1305) to each minority partnerAs your parents, they might not require or care about the same rate of return, or a return at all (except the equity position) especially if they're planning on utilizing the property for personal time.

Because construction is like herding cats, financially and time wise.Your architect never mentioned this special ceiling requirement? 

I also recommend talking to the tenants if you can, so you can find out if there are any issues with the unit (such as, "the landlord said they were gonna fix the a/c but they never did" - if you're buying it in winter, you may not think to check the a/c).Tenants always wait to see how a new owner will act so they can see what kind of leeway they will get with things. 

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

However, as you stated, Memphis can vary significantly by street, so I recommend visiting the area personally and observe the specific streets and surroundings, or doing a zoom call with a trusted realtor who has physically been there. 

Any recommendations??

Hi all,Does anybody have any recommendations for architects who are self-certified and specialize in Chicago residential properties including 2 flats (what we have)?

I wouldn't recommend Philly for a variety of reasons.
