i have a commercial property that I'm considering unloading. 

IF they can self manage successfully (which is a big ask), then this is an excellent option. 

My plan was to keep renting the house, however, the property manager has given us an estimate upwards of 30k in repairs for it to be in rentable condition again. 

Are you planning to self-manage?

What is your management style - hire PM or manage yourself? 

Hi everybody.I have a question on the tax/legal side here.Does an LLC created in the United States under the law of the U.S. and the any state, whose managers/members are foreign individuals, is subject to the FIRTPA withholding when selling a U.S. real estate property ?

There is no FHA 3.5% down on an apartment building or a shopping enter, there's lots of gov't incentives for "everyone to own a home" and since 1-4 units residential are all considered "single family" homes that means young investors get to ride that gravy chain for up to 4 units, but nothing like that exists for CRE (the gov't backed CRE mortgage options require MORE experience than traditional/vanilla commercial mortgages).Let me know if I can help.

Buy a commercial mixed-use property downtown on Main Street with room to put my business on one side.

If you have $10,000 in monthly rental gross income established and rolling and you're in a 5 unit property or more (this qualifies the property for commercial loan consideration).  

The 10-Unit complex would be a commercial business, so the simple answer is to purchase and operate in an LLC.
