Typically a few types of PMs out thereThe individual agent, little to no staffThe PM company that's a set it and forget it, glorified rent collectorThe PM company that's a true partnerI would on top of the suggestions abovesearch for a PM that owns their own portfolio tooThey treat your asset like they treat their own portfolio- There should be a full staff and readily available to answer the phone1.

@Diana MulvihillTwo things can be true at once:1.

Neither that course, nor City Park are really all that great, using that space for a true park is, in my view, a great move for the city. 

These props were in good areas so I am guessing that is why. keep in mind true A class areas whould see majority of comps being sales to homeowners NOT investors.. homeowners dont care what the cash flow is or the potential rental income is only investors do..

You’re probably thinking you have to offer asking price – not true!

Our agent negotiated us a credit for one aspect (floors) but given the true work that really needs to be done is there anything we can do at this point... like arbitration to cover costs of actual work that needs to be done.

Here are a few strategies to consider for funding a down payment:Partnering: Like Gregory mentioned, finding a partner who can contribute to the down payment in exchange for equity or a profit share is a solid option.HELOC or Cash-Out Refi: If you have equity in your home or another property, a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or cash-out refinance can provide the funds you need.Private Money: Reach out to friends, family, or private investors who may be interested in lending you the down payment with a promissory note.Seller Second: In some cases, the seller might agree to finance a portion of the down payment as a second mortgage.Live Frugally and Save: It takes time, but reducing expenses and setting aside funds from your income is a tried-and-true method.The right approach depends on your situation and deal structure, but a mix of creativity and resourcefulness can go a long way.

I really don't think that "one size fits all" but the opposite is not true either, because one size does fit some.

Wishing you the best—tough decisions like this are what build true investing experience!

Especially if that’s true for both halves of a couple.
