Still nothing.So here's my question(s), would it be wrong of me to call ABA and request a different advisor, or is this advisor's etiquette indicative of the entire company?  

That's also a good indicator of demand.

A quick analysis tells me that if the following assumptions are true:- You're buying a house for $140K - That generates $1250/month in rent - Assuming you're self-managing with 40% expense/vacancy/capex ratio- And getting a 10 year fully amortized loan at 5% interest If you put 20% down you'll be losing about $450/month.If you put the full $60K down, you're still losing about $100/month.If you were able to pay for the entire thing with cash, you'd only be generating about 6.4% annualized return on your investment.Unless you're in a position to lose money every month, this doesn't sound like a very good deal, and certainly not a good idea to do this with a 10 year loan.Also note that if your calculations indicated that you'd be cash flow positive on this deal, then I'm guessing that you're under-estimating your expenses, under-estimating your vacancy or ignoring capital expenses.
