I do however have a decent sum of money in savings for a down payment as well as would be able to get a parent as a cosigner on the loan to help with income if needed.

I've had countless conversations with heirs who spent a long time trying to figure out how to make money off of land or buildings, but without experience, and never got anywhere a year later.

You are able to get a hard money style loan 50% of purchase of land , 100% of construction upto 65% of the ARV 

The fact is that you have a list of requirements for renting from you, that you present to each applicant and marriage status is not on that list, supports your argument.

Hello everyone, I am selling an apartment building in California using a 1031 exchange (to buy property in the Midwest) and am wondering if I can use my passive loss carryovers and disallowed losses for that property to offset any boot because I am planning to use the cash pullout as reserves or repair money for when the replacement property is vacant. 

I work as a civil, but have survey support experience as well. 

When you build from the ground up in todays market you are paying top dollar for materials, builder costs, land lots, rates, etc.Log cabins can be tough because most appraisers will only use other log cabins on an appraisal to support value.

Free attorneys from tenant-support groups are very effective in finding ways to block and delay.PS: for anyone interested in supporting our landlord legislative efforts please join the Rental Property Association of Wisconsin RPAWI.org which is a Milwaukee-based non-profit.Cashflow in Milwaukee is still possible at current interest rates, but you have to be careful to not "buy cashflow" with a huge capex liability that comes with old buildings! 

I recently came into a significant amount of money or so it is for me.

However, I feel like there's a lot of potential to run into a lot of walls/pitfalls that can cost a ton of time/money if I do this route.At the end of the day, I want to put a lot of emphasis on using the newest technologies to streamline the business as much as possible.
