My primary career for a publicly traded company has done well and my CPA believes that our real estate portfolio with RE pro status and acceleration of cost seg could help offset the stock income so I don’t have to sell a bunch of it for the tax ramifications.

@Izaiah Barba -  I think every state is different and I think there's a difference in things sent manually (an individual click), vs a bulk e-mail blast.I've heard of people getting into some nasty lawsuits over this kind of stuff.  

We will have 2 means of e-gress, proper ceiling height (7ft. 6in), 1,500 sq. ft per unit, etc. for the basement. 

I am considering trading out and moving into some industrial space.

Here is my situation; I am looking to purchases a commercial property in Shenandoah, IA. here is the description:SD LOTS 496-504 CRIP W 20' E 45' LOT 6 & PT VAC ST ADJ SW. the tenant occupying the space will be leaving at the end of the month but the seller's niece is only wanting to keep the back half of the property as a hair salon and wants nothing to do with the store front or the apartments upstairs.

If you are good with creative financing focus on that, if you have a skill that is a trade you can trade time for time with another person who has different skills.

If it is listed you can have them write the contract, negotiate for you on anything, and if the seller down the line comes back after you for something that happen you would be covered due to the agent/broker E/O (this is an extreme example).

Diversity of renters, length of leases in place, property condition, and location can also affect risk and value, ultimately impacting the cap rate.When someone says a property has a cap rate of 5%, or that assets in a given area are trading around a 5-cap, they are talking about the return on that property.
