-What are the pros & cons of these options- senior housing vs Airbnbs vs student housing?

Condos can be a good option for new investors, but updating kitchens and bathrooms might not add as much value compared to single-family homes, especially with potential restrictions from condo associations.

This gives you the best heads up when going through options!

I just came across this forum and thought I'd post this and get thoughts on if the I made the right move with the purchase of townhomes and what my other options are. 

And your accountant has the option to treat the 1031 as an installement sale with $1 mil received in the year of sale and the other $1 mil received in the next tax year.  

Instead of implementing a first right of refusal, there should be an option to buy their homes from them at a fair market value/paying to move their homes elsewhere or give them the first right.This is the real issue, we are not protecting tenants by solely giving them the first right of purchase.

If you go out into Clayton and other outer suburbs, I've seen these at more reasonable prices so it could be an option.

If you want to attract high-income earners who are used to a certain quality of life and can't afford to buy in those areas, then look at your available options; house-hack, partner, buy a condo/townhouse as opposed to a single-family home, start with medium-income earners, etc.

Can someone suggest the best options for us or any experience the same?
