Waiting  on my deal to Finish I have a free and clear home worth 120k ,  but until I finish  putting  carpert and heat I cant sell or pull cash and I ran out of capital , With at least  90K Waitinggg for me, Seriously...

So I have hand in the appreciation pot.

The net net is exchanging 4 condos with HOAs and a monthly income of $3,200 (after HOA and prop mgmt) for a four-plex with $5,800 a month income (after property mgmt).  

Also if you are using Fannie/Freddie loans, then your safety net is built into their underwriting guidelines as they require you to have 6 months of reserves per property. 

I found out from a mutual Facebook "friend" that he is a "pot head."  

Meaning lower performing districts will receive more money and higher will receive less of a pot that he mentioned will also be diminishing.

I am trying to come up with a solution (adding an insulated drop ceiling) but everything I read seems to tell me it won't help much since the HVAC is connected between floors (which is where a lot of the noise comes from) and something about us having pot lights downstairs making a drop ceiling a hassle to install. 

Avoid this mess and take title, then sell, at that point you're not a straw-man, you're an owner, owners can set any price for property without being seen as a service provider.And "disclosures", LOL, get your seller to agree to you "selling" the place, you just arranged a brokerage deal, say you're buying and don't you're scamming regardless of what you lead others to believe.So, let's also drop this "down with wholesaler" talk, bashing them or belittling them as they accuse me of doing, I just told everyone how to do this stuff legally and ethically, but for those who continue with assigning voidable contracts, you put yourself in pot to boil. :)   

Ca-chingNow... if it all goes to pot and the tenant/buyer still can't pull the trigger at the end, now you have some decisions to make.

Well, they forfeit their deposit and you simply rinse and repeat the process.Now... if it all goes to pot and they still can't pull the trigger, now you're left with a decision.
