You are married to this house, your buddies are not.

My buddy seller will pay the bill thankfully but I just got my first lesson in Murphy's law and the school of hard knocks :)Here are a few pix of the front unit.

If I pretend to be old Fannie, my answer would be something like:OK there buddy if you have all these cash-flow-positive rock solid rental properties making oodles and oodles of money, why is it so hard to pay some of the mortgages off?

Thanks @Juan Vargas (Not sure how to tag people on here hahaha) You got it buddy!!!

ChassWelcome check out the freeUltimate Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing at http://www.biggerpockets.com/ubgLocate and attend 3 different local REIA clubs attend the meetings great place to gather people, info and resources.BTW a buddy in Detroit got a REO duplex for 6K mortgage had been 80K.

A friend of mine (retired mailman) met a drinking buddy at the Moose Lodge.

Good luck buddy

My buddy was telling me about sites where you can mimic or copy professional trader, but I am VERY skeptical!

My buddy had the same problem with a washer/dryer he left in the duplex. 

I worked very hard while my buddies we're drinking and partying the nights away I was at my second job.
