Hi everyone, I bought two small multi-family properties in Blackstone, VA, way back in 2017.

Many of the deals I’m buying right now never hit MLS — they come through direct-to-seller marketing, referrals, tired landlords, or situations like inherited properties where the seller’s primary concern isn’t maximizing price but solving a problem.✅ Be open to creative deal structures.

Hey BP, I’m looking for guidance on how to best approach the sale of a small infill lot I own in Portsmouth, VA.

In many states, assessors are required to use fair market value (FMV) for tax purposes, regardless of sale price especially if the sale is non-arm’s length like selling to an entity you control.3.

I’ve noticed that some tenants tend to text the property manager directly when maintenance issues arise.

I started small and grew it over time.

We found that we do the work, but when it comes time to get paid, the partner mysteriously gets alligator arms and can't reach the checkbook.

Would appreciate any advice regarding the direction I should go next.

However, we determined we could make considerably greater return investing in discounted notes, in hard money/private mortgage lending, and in direct property investment.  

My wife and I also invested in small multi and single family with the goal of owning and operating Short term rentals.
