I tried shopping around but no one would take me since I had a sewer collapse claim last spring.

Do you know what you are doing based on actual practical hands on experience?

We are actively managing two fund offerings, one focusing on real property (REO and off market properties), the other focusing on Pre-REO (vacant first mortgages).

Focus on what matters, not on things that have nothing to do with what drives the desired  results.

So you shouldn't count on appreciation to justify under performing STRs.

I use eggshell on the walls, flat only on ceilings and high gloss on trim and windows.

The mortgage would stay under the seller's name.The buyer could then rent out the unit, renovate, etc. to increase cash flow or make more money.But aside from a possible "due on clause" being called by the mortgage company, what's the benefit to the seller?

There are experienced PM's on here such as myself willing to coach and give advice. 

There is a good one in the Stamford area hosted by Brandon Chisholm.
