Double coverage seems like a waste of money to me and a possible finger pointing fiasco if a claim happens.

Quick money.

find a strategy that is repeatable and duplicatable and gets your money back.

We have lived in our other two deals, made money on both, but I have no idea how to do another deal safely without living in it.

If our occupancy starts to drop, we can increase google adds by month or reinstate the bus benches and SP Aggregator.Our cheapest advertisement is our Billboard Road sign out front for $18,000 one time.I always say it's your money. 

We plan to spend the next 6-12 months continuing to earn and save, as well as nail down a final market we want to househack in.

Getting into these properties as a non occupant coborrower (all the money invested to get in was mine) was a less cash heavy way to get into the properties versus as an investor.I already have great equity in these properties and prices continue to up.Sounds like, so far, the consensus is to sell the properties and roll the money into other non-condo units.

Did you borrow money from a local bank/credit union for the remainder of the purchase price or did the funds from your 1031 cover all of it? 

I also just go done taking a Alan Cowgill course on raising money to help fund my deals.

The king will just say "my bad, we have no more money".
