One benefit is that depending on how you have your investing structured the cost share portion is figured on 'taxable income', not cash flow.

Your portion of the rent would just be regular maintenance.

@Bobby Shell @Michael Wilson @Scott PassmanAlso, if I was to invest a portion into an index fund would you suggest finding an app or website to do that on my own?

@Shaun Weekes actually your info was vital because i was only going to send it in after the amended was completed but now im going to bring it to another professional to make sure everything is good.

I’m curious to see if anyone has partnered with a contractor to complete a BRRRR and then pay them out of the refinance portion?

The mixture of properties included the following:SFRDuplexes 12 Unit ComplexThe final negotiations were for a cash purchase of a portion of the deal, with the remainder being owner financed.

I travel around the world and live abroad for a portion of the year, so vacation or investment property outside the US interest me.

In the bigger properties, it is also common to have a portion be non-refundable immediately and the remainder become non-refundable after the due diligence period.I will note that 72 hours is a VERY short due diligence period. 

Since they might claim they haven't received stuff etc.also last month they told her not to pay her portion to me if $200 until it's cleared by them...

If its vital to the deal then we may have to aim a bit lower for our first property.I agree that a yield play is my best bet, but I would plan to strategically update the property in order to force appreciation and increase value.
