If you want to resale it have him give you an option to purchase and find a buyer. To buy and then resale will eat up a lot of your profit and give you a seasoning issue.

I have a relative with a 3 unit building that he wants to sell for 450K in a great neigborhood. Although it is really worth 470K according to comps. His goal is to get the equity out to funnel to another business. I would like to purchase it and perhaps resell. What would you suggest I propose? The building has a positive cash flow of $700. The mortgage balance is about 280K. Tell me what you think.
