What you’re building isn’t just a soccer facility, it’s a community hub, and that’s exactly the kind of project that attracts both families and investors.

There will be less repairs and deferred maintenance issues, but many maintenance calls are tied to tenant actions.Hopefully, a new build will attract better tenants, but great screening is required also.HOA's can be a pain!

There's a couple of things that make this more attractive than the other option sugggested of forming a new LLC to own the property.First is the expense and reporting involved in another LLC entity.Second though and more important in my book is that by having your LLC own a TIC interest and having your partners LLC own a TIC interest you keep the utmost flexibility available to you as you move forward with that property to eventual sale and possible 1031 exchange.  

This distinction is what makes the loan structure so attractive to fix and flip investors transitioning into rentals.

Since approval is based on the property’s income, not your personal W2, it can let you scale faster without the caps of conventional financing.Cash flow metrics can be stricter—you really need the property to perform on its own—but that’s part of what makes DSCR attractive for long-term holds.

My focus is on areas with strong growth potential, stable rental demand, and lower crime — the kind of markets that can hold value and stay attractive to quality tenants long-term.A bit about me:- Based in NY, working full-time — this will be my first rental property and managed remotely, but I plan to visit regularly for due diligence and upkeep.- Conventional financing, aiming for something in good condition (or turnkey) so I can start renting quickly without heavy renovation.- My goal is to keep monthly cash flow in the positive while building equity over time.What I’d like to hear from locals:- Which suburbs have been performing well for rentals and attracting steady tenants? 

Do you have a Plan B—like nearby attractions or activities—to help drive weekday bookings?
