ONLY purchase training if its with funds you can afford to lose because of the failure rate.making connections is important and where success can come from.

And the truth is, if the investment property was completely passive and you had zero connection with it, such as an arbitrary stock in a mutual fund, then I would agree not to get emotionally attached to any one investment.  

I can buy a 2-4 unit with 20% down vs conventional can only buy a 2-4 INVESTMENT property with 25% down 4. there are options where DSCR loans dont repot to personal credit, helps in not having to show a bunch of paperwork or not one person in a partnership has to carry the debt5. way less paperwork to close on this loan type vs a conventional loan. we care about the income of the property you're buying and it's ability to service the debt of the property whether we use long term rents income, lease income, or air dna/bnb income.6. easily buy in partnerships, add people to your operating agreement, its as easy as that so bring partners into a deal. helps with scaling and raising capital or getting partners involved7. gift funds allowed to close on these as well, and like I said earlier, there's only a 10day seasoning period of funds with some lenders so that means you can literally have a private money lender deposit money into your account 11 days before closing, and you can use those funds to close!

Be sure to have funds you can tap in case of emergency or inevitable market dips. - Most Fortune 5000 (and others) companies do this.

If your 5th deal is good, you should be able to find funding outside the banking industry.

Find a sponsor, reach out, tell them you're Canadian, they approve, review and sign LP docs, wire funds.

- If the Association Fees are regularly increasing or the Association is poorly funded - SELL.3) How much of your TIME do you want to invest in all this?

You said "100% of our funds were investors" then "my capital came from bank Lines of credit NO investors", so wondered exactly how much of the 100% was replaced. 

You can reach out to the Title company and see if there are any funds remaining for dispersement, if so then ask if there is a way to make a claim to those funds.

I'd just as soon donate to the local contractor union's retirement fund.
