@Ian HooverThat is the method i am using to pay down the CCs.

As to Admiral, I actually am using them for another property later this week that we just finished up.  

I am using that to super charge my savings I have calculated the I can save about 20000.00 by January 2019. that is less then halve of what I need I'm am considering a private investor but have no idea where to start. 

I find your comments about landlords being thugs amusing.

I decided to cut my losses and sold the property for a small amount of proceeds, which I am using for the next purchase (under contract for a duplex with 1750 per month rent, but 103,000 sale price) - truly a better performing property.And if anyone is interested in some advice on the ordeal, I have tons:Pre-screen your applicants as well as possible.

The realtor I am using to find my new home is also going to lease my current home.

As an experienced real estate appraiser, I am using these sites every day.

Example you purchase a SFR (I realize you are looking at MF but I am using this only as a simple example) with a HVAC that is 15 years old. 

@John WoodrichSo in my case specifically I am using short term rentals to pay down loans and very quickly build equity in the properties.

I am using a conventional nonconforming loan at 5.625%, with 25% down (which I'm able to come up with).
