Hi @Evan Coopersmith, I'm an investor and licensed mortgage broker here in Chicago (Oak Park).

At this time the interest rates may make keeping your existing home a better option than times when rates have not risen as substantially.  

I'm an investor and mortgage broker and have options for loans that go as low as $75,000 and down payments as low as 15%, which makes it easier to stay above $75,000.

Have you ever taken out a loan to afford the down payment for a mortgage and do you know of any lenders that offer that?

I'm hoping to connect with some mortgage brokers in Puerto Rico who may be able to finance an investment property in Vieques. 

In this manual (which I assume could be modified to provide to tenants) I include all the financing information (which you would not include for tenants) bank accounts, mortgage accounts, payment information, and mortgage payoff), a list of the contractors, what each contractor does, a list of upcoming planned or necessary repairs, and a copy of all leases associated with the property.

I have seen some properties on MLS that I contact my realtor and they may know right away the reason it isn't selling from showing it previously, or they can review the realtor comments that aren't viewable by the public on MLS.Other potential reasons I have seen properties listed on MLS for a long time. 1) Some investors may not be comfortable inheriting existing tenants.2) It may be it is a class C neighborhood. 3) Structural issues.

This is a conventional loan where they also cover your PMI (private mortgage insurance).

That’s 3 months of mortgage out of pocket and can make Chas flow negative. im also curious if people have experience doing section 8 in b neighborhoods or just c and d 

How can a individual existing property be moved out of partnership to a individual member without triggering capitol gains?
