So I was paying under the market rent to live in the property, then moved out and rented my unit and it’s cash flow positive.

When you borrow money you agree to pay it back.

I currently live in a 1000 sqft home that we pay a mortgage on.

Of course the solo would also pay the notes.

Push through it, you may even need to have a second, consistent paying job and thats OK, until you get established.

Sometimes it's better to pay a bit more, for a real professional to handle your most important transaction. 

If you have no money for down payment do you have teh $2000+ per month to pay the first (then still have to pay the 2nd?)

Not sure why anyone would pay to learn how to snowball a mortgage ..  ????

For example, I mention that every adult must pay a $XX application fee, pass my credit/criminal background, make a combined income of 3x the rent, and whether or not the property accepts pets.

Then, both needed about $5,000-$10,000 each in repairs and cleanup.Even with low rents in those areas, renters struggle to pay $995/month on one property and $1,095/month on another.
