Guess I have been too close to the problem because that was the only idea I could come up with to get rolling again.New plan.

We hope to acquire many multi-unit apartments in an area with cheap houses so we can get things rolling quickly.Thanks for any tips!!!

We need to come up with a large enough down payment to get the ball rolling.

Is anyone familiar with whether or not the remaining annual property taxes have to be paid upfront (essentially cash) at the closing or if they can be rolled into the monthly mortgage payment?

Please cease from your false, baseless, ludicrous, and frankly malicious statements about my firm .

I'm playing the roll of property manager for a 4plex property my partner just closed on 2 weeks ago.At the time of closing 1 tenant had not paid rent and I understand this was chronic.

Avoid tax and roll those proceeds into other investment property...

By the end of 2 years you should have equity and cash-flow to roll over in to the next deal. 

It's a roll of the dice.

@Caleb Anderson,You need to mentally accept that things will go wrong, things will be much more expensive than you planned, sometimes you get lucky, but a lot of times it's the worst case scenario, and you have to roll with it.
