I've personally utilized private notes on three transactions and participated in another handful of negotiations with sellers on behalf of buyers in the past five years. 

I have always imagined getting to the point where I could hold/ run a small community of mountain cabin rentals or a guest house, something along those lines.Thanks,Chad  Yes I meant AirBnb and Mid-term rentals, rent by the room, glamping (although I probably wouldn't go that route), buying commercial RE and running a business (for me that would be a lot of work with a W2 job and buying property locally or leasing out a space is expensive here). 

Believe me - as a "Titanium Client" for 5 years - I have used ALL of their services, and I KNOW first-hand how Anderson's service has, SADLY, deteriorated.

Do you have first-hand knowledge or experience with these businesses, or are you just looking to stir up trouble? 

When a lease ends they’ll suggest new rents and if the tenant hold be offered a renewal. some will offer to transfer utilities for you when it goes vacant, all should handle the transfer when a tenant moves in  With 10 properties I don’t “talk” to my PM more than 2-3 times a year.

My dilemma has been that I've gotten a little behind on some revolving debt that selling this property now could eliminate in addition to giving me cash on hand to trade into some better value or start a new construction duplex project I've been wanting to start.

Also, the refinance of the property into a long-term DSCR loan to hold the property for rentals after your rehab is complete.

I have switched from BRRRR to just buy & hold and let the market do the work for me. 

We have been house hacking in Boise, property to property for the last 5 years - and they all were not break even or positive after we left, and we have paid monthly out of pocket to hold properties. 

to your point, if you save up so that you're in a strong financial position, house hack a solid duplex in a decent neighborhood, make smart decisions, and hold it indefinitely, you'll be fine.conversely, if you have $0 and somehow start out with a risky flip, or borrow $20K and spend it all on a magic mentoring program, or buy a terrible property in a neighborhood you've never been to, you may not be fine.
