@Courtney Benson, I've spoken to a bunch of local banks and CUs in both SE CT and NW MA.

Credit scores are not bad, per se, but are definitely lower than the duplex. 

SE/SW Fresno is where you could find deals but the area is a little rocky.

I'm also a lender in the SE and midwest for short term, acquisition and renovation.

How much do you expect this to affect the rental/housing market in SE Colorado Springs?

So I only have two options: get an attorney or deed it to myself and handle it pro se.

At basically 21%, you can't beat that since your personal tax rates are much higher plus SE tax (if you aren't using a S Corp). 

I have been renting it out for a few years and refinanced 3 yrs ago for lower interest rate of about 4.2% and to pay it off quicker by shortening the life of the loan.This is a single family home located in SE Aurora (outside of Denver). 4 Bdrm/3bath.

Jake, welcome to investing in SE PA. 

That said, there's a lot more going on in that area than Western MA.I focus on SE CT.
