I have an issue with that because a true mentor will mentor you if you're lucky to have their time.

I am trying to negotiate a credit for other issues, but is there anything else I could do to limit my liability on this if I can't get to look at the crawl space?

A year and a half after the purchase we started having severe floor issues and discovered the underpinnings were in very bad condition.

Note also that there are more passive options that are 1031-eligible such as Delaware Statutory Trusts if the real issue is you're looking to get out of property management.)Another option might be a 721 UPREIT exchange.

Sometimes even 2 months.Keep in mind, most DSCR lenders can start the refinance process at 60 days of ownership, so the refi side isn't ever an issue.

I pick the first qualified applicant(s) and do the checks and thus avoid discrimination issues.

Even within a single lender, if it has different eyes on similar properties, one might find issue with something that delays the process while the other doesn't.

So far they have been there for 2 years without issues so if you can get more security I say go for it.

From what you said it shouldn't have any issues.

The issue wasn't the time it took, but the lack of communication, the lack of follow through, and then the lack of repairs they said were done.I wasn't expecting the properties to be passive, any of them.
