Hey Laura,So I can't help with the true GAP funding, but I might have some ideas on how I could help utilizing the seller financing and transitioning it to something long term. 

I own a property management company in WA, including Yakima.Here’s a rough breakdown of costs:- Management: 15-30% of revenue- Cleaning: $100-$200 per turnover- Utilities: $150-$300/month- Maintenance: 5-10% of revenue- Insurance: $1,500-$3,000/yearTools like AirDNA or Mashvisor can give you a solid idea of income and occupancy.

Still up to me to properly utilize it and get the deals contracted.

I’ve been in this unit for almost a year now and I’m thinking about moving out and renting an apartment for $1000 a month all utilities included.
