@Diana Mulvihill I would say use the authorities as the middlemen unless you know the owners and are comfortable meeting in person.

Since your rental is currently held in your personal names, transferring it to an LLC before selling could complicate the exchange.

Sell it in your personal name; sell it from an LLC.

I'm a returning member to Bigger pockets and returning member to Fayetteville, NC community.

The seller is being difficult, first said only return half my deposit, now not willing to return whole deposit using me passing the inspection date as excuse, my agent is fighting for me and said to the seller it is about financing bank is not lending at the asking price, the contract has general terms about financing, it is a standard contract my agent offered, my agent told me he is going to call the title company, hopefully title to return my deposit. 

This deal highlighted the power of strategic investing, proving that even small-scale rehabs can generate solid returns when executed efficiently.

I'm trying to clarify if the DCR loans negatively impact my personal debt income ratio.

one truism I think for rental real estate is returns and price points are very much risk adjusted highest returns lowest price points  biggest risk.. smaller cap or return and prime location least risk..

Real estate investing can be highly rewarding, but effective management is key to maximizing returns.

And since the S-Corp’s profits pass through to you, you’d still pay personal income tax on the rental income.
