Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

I'd told my agent this a few weeks ago, and my agent told me technically he is owed a 3% commission but he won't hold that against me since it's a family member and I'm starting out.

I grew up in the industry and still have a hard time with holding contractors accountable.

Water/sewer/trash bills are killer in the City and they are ruthless about holding housing providers responsible while letting tenants repeatedly off the hook. 

Trying to get a hold of them on the phone/email has been a challenge as well.

How does one take the owner finance situation to a bank and turn it into a 30 year loan to hold without an additional down payment of 20 percent ?

Next, I would find out who the attorney(s) is in your area that is known for regularly dealing with the Zoning Board.
