I believe that within three years, rates will be much lower, and you can refinance.Another consideration is that once you get a property under contract, you should immediately shop around for better rates.

I used CE Shop and they are nationwide. 

i am confident i can manage the relatively small amount of requests, and have heard some good things about apps and software that are a "one stop shop" for landlords that allow payment, leases, and repair requests. i have one out of state rental property with a plethora of options for handymen and contractors around. i have been paying a property management company 8% plus all of their inflated costs of repairs and fees and with insurance going up it has really opened my eyes to my margins not as healthy as i would like.do you have a certain product you have used or use or would recommend?

Comparing Amazon to Bitcoin is like comparing your local pawn shop to Walmart. 

So we shopped it out to our consistent buyers but at a strong price of $75k.

I'll have to shop around and see if I can get something better. 

Buy them well so you can refinance out the downpayment with a Home Equity Line of Credit with lenders that will do that for you and go shopping again.

Did you also try to become the Mayor on Yelp of the local coffee shop when you were younger?
