My first purchase, first property, I had a great realtor.

The LLC sells the subject property and buys, for example, 3 replacement properties in a 1031 exchange. 

:(The system found out that many people were NOT cut out to be property owners.

My wife and I have an opportunity to purchase a property in South Lake Tahoe from her father.

I have two properties which at 10% fee will be around $35K.

Purchase price: $74,000 Cash invested: $25,000 Sale price: $145,000 I acquired a property from a couple needing to relocate, with significant repairs required.

Quote from @Dennis McNeely: In a sandwich lease option, the investor exercises their option with the property owner to purchase the property when the tenant-buyer indicates they're ready to exercise their option and purchases the property.

If your interest payment is $8,125Your stocks have to make a dividiend of about $11,000 of which you would prolly pay 15% to 25% in federal / state taxes / NIIT.Assuming you will make a 10%-11% return is not guaranteed.You will also feel good about having a paid off property(relief).Furthermore, your credit score may go up with a paid off property.Best of luck!

Aloha does updates on the property and claims they still have confidence the property will sell, and we'll get our investment back plus all interest owed since default.   

I'm starting a property management company and I'm curious to know how people have marketed themselves online.
