So I bought a cheap single-family rental in a C location.

DOS or more commonly known as Event of default.Alienation of title is an event of default in most all debt instruments not usually located in the Note its in the mortgage  deed of trust etc.And along with other Events of Default  IE non payment of Insurance or tax's or waste these all give the lender the right to Accelerate the note but not the obligation..

U only have to be burned once when title comes back 3 days before closing ( which can be very common in abstractor  states ) only to find it title is buggered.. title companies and closing attorneis may have their process's but a good agent just lets them know this is how escrow is going to flow.. they will wine but it cost 200.00 for a title search and we dont want to spend that until we know we have a closing.

Search youtube, "Multifamily owner and baby boomer sells 18 units and uses a deferred sales trust instead of 1031" to here more details.

Best of luck with your search.  

@Jesse Strengunfortunately I’m not familiar with property managers in that location what I would suggest is I would look up NARPM and start with them..Below are some questions I would think would be a good starting point for you to see who really treats their company like a business or a hobby.My business partner is a regional VP for NARPM and I am happy to help if you need anything please reach outQuestions to Ask prospective management companies* What are your average days on market for vacant homes?

Hi Anthony-You currently live in NJ and are looking for out-of-state locations that are affordable with strong rental potential.I would look at a market like Lansing, MI.

They should be easy to find with an internet search.
