The overall LTV (including all 3 mortgages) will be key and your selling point will need to be that the 2nd mortgage ($8k) will burn off in 2.5 years (based on your surprise that it was even out there, I'd recommend that you follow up in 2.5 years and ensure that it's been satisified, so that it doesn't surprise you again in the future).Does the $8k grant vest over the 5 years? 

However, it's important to keep swimming even when the current is against you.

My questions are;Do I have to take expenses as a deduction in a year in which they occurred even if I do not get income until the following year  I have other rental property, but my taxable income on them after expenses is only gonna be about $5000 So is there anyway to roll over expenses to the next year since I cannot deduct the remaining 15,000 and expenses against my W-2 income?

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

They even have awesome free resources as well. 

They talk to the tenant for you and do maintenance without you even hearing about it first?

Quote from @Ricardo Polanco: Good evening everyone, I am evaluating the possibility of buying a multifamily property in Scranton, at this moment it has 2 apartments that only need cosmetic repairs and it has a big 2nd floor unit that needs a full repair.

EVEN IF THEY ARE PAID they cant guarantee that a short sale will even be approved AND cant guarantee any price.

Everything else is a total nightmare, with frequent failed connections and endless re-linking hassles.What’s even more frustrating is that, despite being a premium-paying customer, I’ve been chatting with Christopher from Stessa’s support team for over seven weeks, and he has genuinely tried to help.

We haven’t even talked about the lack of ice make which is probably just as bad.
