Is it wrong to want to sell a property bc your partner isn’t as interested in real estate and doesn’t want to help with tasks? It’s in another state and it’s a very old house that constantly needs attention. Cash flow is very good since it’s a duplex but it becomes a bit much to handle alone. If I gave it to a property manager, how much should I expect them to take care of things? I usually self manage.

Property managers range usually 50-100% off the first months rent plus 6-12% off the monthly rent and a renewal fee of 50-100% of a month's rent. Often you are required to use their repair team and they make money there too. However, if it can flows and is appreciating do that or consider a 1031 for something else is your opposed to it.

If you go peppery manager interview a few and find a good fit but just the cheapest.

The partner piece is a whole different topic and depends greatly on your goal.

An old property in another state that you can’t handle on your own sound like you either need to sell or hire a property manager. I find private funds WAY easier to deal with compared to the efforts of direct ownership.

I feel like you have been on this app already before and asked this same question. You already got an answer. Sell the house or manage it yourself. I also have a duplex and got it pre manage, I don’t expect my spouse to help with it

If the investment doesn’t work for you (or your household situation), then move on. There’s plenty of investment options out there, and not all of them are for everybody.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.

Due to a family situation we are looking to move to a different state. Normally we would sell our current home and buy a new home in our new location. However, with todays prices and interest, will it make more sense to rent out our current home and rent a home ourselves vs. selling and buying immediately when we move? We are moving from Vegas to Sacramento and we are not sure how long we would stay in the new area. Thoughts?

Question for folks with second homes: Considering buying a vacation home but would be primarily for family use. We currently have a primary residence with a mortgage balance of ~640K, so my understanding is I could only deduct the mortgage interest on 110K of the second mortgage to stay under the 750K cap. If I were to buy the second home through an LLC, would that allow me to exceed that 750K since the expenses of the second home would be pass through expenses/income?
