Great post, just now reading! 

The problem is, none of it is based on actual comps, and again, the word "cute" doesn't have anything to do with setting those numners.What you need to do is a full analysis of the comps for both rent and sold in your area. 

Every insurance agent/company should have big sign posted in front that states "We're an insurance company, we are not here to protect your interest or to make you whole.

What do I care if someone owns a property they post to their website or not?

but, my my first question with these posts is why can you not use conventional financing anymore? 

Still, this is a poor time in the rental season and 1 months rent can be expected as a cost of vacancy (in addition to the cost to clean and touch up - $900) .Finally and I hope this is is the last one lol - Another tenant is moving out Jan 31st and this unit also requires a full cosmetic rehab.

I’d love advice on leveraging my existing assets, navigating seller finance deals, or other tips for scaling effectively.

As mentioned, one could run it sec8, for more $, and the sec8 waiting list has been full for 7+ years now.

What marketing efforts are they going to do outside of just posting in the MLS.

But at some point I do find that next niche that works for me and I like and go into that full steam.
