Once I make my next downpayment on another rental I will definitely begin building the pot back up with the cash flow from this home.

At the same time, be careful about chasing a bigger pot of gold and losing the one you already have.

I try to sweeten the pot by telling tenants if it looks nice I usually can schedule all my showings in 1-2 days and I will do a cash deposit refund at the walk through if they leave it clean and rent-ready like they received it.

It’s a lot of hands in the pot but TBH if I’m reading correctly, the occupant doesn’t have right to title and you may be negotiating with the wrong person.

But even still, I need to crap or get off the pot!

According to the National Association of Realtors yearly report an average flip takes 6 months (you have to include the time it takes to sell and close) and has a gross profit of $65,000 (before accounting for costs) after accounting for costs the net is $15,000I won't do a flip unless I am going to wind up with $50,000 in my pocket after all expenses.Most people over build for the neighborhood and don't understand comps so they think they are going to sell for more than the market supports. 

I'm looking through the current multis listed and seeing which agents are active.Will start calling brokerages but like to research first as otherwise theres some pot luck of who picks up phone and where I get directed!

It would even be worth it for you to pay a small amount more to sweeten the pot if you need to to get the short term financing. 

You just need that starting pot of money to use for your initial down payment and closing costs.

First folks lasted a year, then found jobs in a state where pot is legal recreationally (they actually told that to me,  despite my strict no smoking of anything policy)- second set (in same property, interestingly enough),  have moved from rural South Dakota to a Chicago busy suburb.
