Its a cliche, but it really holds true in Commercial...relationships are king. 

Making true connections, adding value, and engaging everyone.

As a former hipster (before the word existed) this actually probably true, but for obvious reasons. 

The problem is not finding a equity or debt partner and no even deals,  the problem is not knowing the numbers, the market and a TRUE NOI.

True.

@Tadas Bendaravicius If you have to replace one window, you have to replace them all, I think you are saying that is true in MA as well?

Your house is beautiful!

HOWEVER, on that note, just because it does not report on your credit DOES NOT mean it is non-recourse and therefore it DOES count towards your DTI calculation in most cases going forward.Off my side tangent, a true non-recourse loan is any loan that does not have any kind of personal guarantee. 

I used a heloc for down payments on 2 apartment buildings; an 8 plex and a 5 plex with a beauty salon. 

Most realtors are too quick to try to gloss over various issues thinking that by making it seem like there are less problems the sale is more likely to occur faster, maybe that's true but it'll just anger a savvy buyer if things are missed.
