The third property has a nice cash flow.I am wondering if there are steps I can take to reduce the cashflow issues of the 2 properties before obtaining another property, like pay down the mortgages or should I just save the cashflow from the third property to pay for any future expenses?

I've self-financed deals my deals, financed them with a HELOC and used third party lenders as well.

It can make leasing a bit harder since you will have more vacancy when those come do but it will all be in peak season.With respect to the hiring decision, you would need to hire someone to replace you (perform the same functions you currently perform) so that you continue to work up the ladder (spending more time on higher value tasks).  

Finally my third piece of advice for getting started on wholesaling would be to meet cash buyers like myself and add them to a list of cash buyers.

They finally reach out to say that the bank needs more time to work on this loan and work through the paperwork.Finally, we get to the third close date. 

@Suzy FarmanHere’s what’s worked for me:Leverage Airbnb/VRBO: Many insurance companies use these platforms via third-party services.

We have a niche market due to the hospital and university which has pros and cons but my properties have continued to perform well for me.  

But let’s go a later deeper - my down payment would come out of a well performing stock portfolio.

My dad and I got caught by that snag on our third flip years ago, and we definitely kicke ourselves for not doing a little extra research up front.

-how is management split among you, PadSplit and any other third parties?
