Sounds like you are off to a great start!

I haven't accepted the offer.  

It might be more a matter of fine-tuning your listing than just a shift in the overall market.

I currently own a 3-unit multifamily property, and I’m actively looking to expand my portfolio while building meaningful connections with like-minded investors in CT.I’m particularly interested in:Wholesalers: If you’ve got off-market deals, I’d love to hear from you.Creative Financing Opportunities: Subject-to deals and seller financing are right up my alley.Networking and Partnerships: I’m eager to collaborate with other investors who share a passion for creative deal-making and scaling our businesses together.Whether you’re an experienced investor, just starting out, or anywhere in between, let’s connect!

I don't necessarily mind that they are making a profit off of me; in fact, I expect it.

It wasn’t a massive deal—our expected assignment fee was $10,000—but when you’re growing a business, every opportunity matters.Everything seemed to be moving smoothly until the title search revealed a major roadblock: the mortgage discharge couldn’t be cleared because the person who needed to sign off was deceased.

To be clear, you are not paying off the 80K mortgage.

Would the 9-year balloon concern you, knowing you'd need to refinance or pay off the balance at potentially higher market rates in the future?

Then if/when another good deal comes up, you can approach a lender and look at leveraging either of the properties in order to fund the down payment of the new property.
