I saw how that proposal is basically her giving me a 0% loan, but at the same time I believe that structure will avoid her taking a large loss (approximately 30k if she accepts a 300k offer).I do not know why she doesnt get a PM, I only share the facts of when she purchased it, the purchase price, and the reasoning she shared with my realtor as to why she is selling after such a short time period.

Process is simple. 1. purchase contract2. send contract to title company3. bring cash to closing and you're done

I’m in the process of purchasing a second home in Aspen, CO, which will also serve as my first STR property.

I have used HELOCs for probably most of the purchases of the properties I own. 

I have purchased many properties without a tenant in place.

I have a duplex and single-family at East Stroudsburg that I purchased right before interest rates spiked so I am comfortably at a 3.125% interest rate on the two properties.

This allows you to use all of the tax and deferred depreciation recapture to purchase the larger MF propertyA consolidation exchange is where you sell multiple investment properties to purchase a larger and nicer investment property, but you also get the benefit of using all of the tax you would have had to pay to your advantage.

Quote from @Landon Sheveland: Hello,My wife and I, are attempting to purchase our first property.

Some states may be more enjoyable than others when it comes to running a PM company.

I purchased a single family to rent out the rooms and it sent my finical plan completely off course because I was not as ready as I previously thought.
