I happen to have a few investors who want in on a 2-4 plex but have yet to find an eager investor on the bigger units. 

A "kiddie condo" is the concept of buying a residential property with "owner occupied" rate financing made possible by having an adult child living in it, if only while they're in college or single.

Unlike residential, nearly every commercial real estate buyer is an investor.

It could be owning multiple single-family homes, an apartment complex, or both.

What Nathan said.You are following the red herring of the (real or imagined) roach problem, but the tenant just told you they cannot afford a $35/mo. rent increase in an under market rent apartment!

In looking to get better rates, I had an insurance company give me a quote. 

Purchase price: $105,000 Cash invested: $25,000 In 2016, I saw an ad on Craig's List for these 2 townhomes.

These buyers had nearly paid off their purchase when they were suddenly told they were being evicted—despite having proof of payment and an agreement that should have protected them.

Why would you place your money with an administrator?

A new furnace is an asset.
