As General Partners (GPs), we juggle a lot—talking with vendors, negotiating with buyers and sellers, and ensuring the deal stays on track.

I would like to work out a payment plan whereby they pay me while I have control of the rights to the mortgage then in 10 years I pay off the principal.

Keep learning and running the numbers—you're on the right track!

You’re on the right track—good luck!

Quote from @Dinesh Nair: I am a Canadian investor with a US corporate entity- we closed on our first property and now working to find financing through a lender… however rates keep changing all the time.. is there a site to track rates ? 

All you need is a single place to track tenant information, payment history, maintenance, and other things.

If that is true I think you're on the right track. 

I agree with @Ashish Acharya if you're interested in reinvesting the proceeds into another investment property and your goal is to minimize your tax liability a 1031 would work out well for you.

Sounds like you're on the right track for areas to find deals.
