Chances are slim that she is able to get caught up.

My knowledge of both software are slim to none.

The sorry fact of the matter is, the chance of real estate operators or investors coming into the business to day making what I have is slim and none.

Tough pill to swallow.

Truth is often a bitter pill.  

The first house i bought is now my rental instead of the one i inherited which i was renting out for the last 4 years.Long term Goals are to acquire more properties over time, currently my short term goal is to upgrade to a nicer house to live in.My realtor swears up and down not to sell it and to refinance the one im in, as well as my lender, but 259k in interest going from it being paid off in 4 years to 1600 a month for another 30 years is a hard pill to swallow, even though technically the tenants would be paying it off but at the same time i lose allot of profit.

Sure he can owner finance or do something creative but for a price point like that the likely hood is slim.

Even 10% over whatever your PITI ends up being is very slim margins.

With today's slim margins, bypassing these middlemen might just mean working with a reliable real estate broker instead.Everyone starts somewhere!

Sourcing and acquiring deals these days is a little more complex than several years ago, depending on your connections, resources, etc. 20% equity hold for all of the work you'll be going sounds slim.
