@Cole Starin sometimes it makes sense to sell the WORST property in your portfolio.Another option is why do a LOC on the duplex, when you could just do a $100k cashout refi to pay off all your debt AND keep the property?

Your property management company can help once you own the property but up until then you need someone good on your side!!! 

The property is located in a prime growing area in northern Alabama.

I took out a mortgage on the property in November to help make repairs and rent it out.

What type of property? 

If it costs $150,000 and the ADU rents for $750, then it's probably not worth it.Here's a guide on how to analyze a property.

I came across a question for our Rookie Reply podcast episode asking about property management software.

In our still relatively limited experience, seller financiers are usually looking to get a higher asking price in exchange for the favor of the private loan. 

Went and viewed about 10 properties, made an offer on one without a buyer's agent, so that the selling agent would double end the deal and they accepted a below ask offer at a time when prices were climbing.How did you finance this deal?

Never force the numbers—if they don’t add up, the property isn’t a good fit.
