You could always offer a shorter lease that ends in May/June to give yourself an opportunity to find new tenants or raise the rent to market at that time.I hope this helps and if you ever need any guidance or want to chat about the process of assuming an existing loan, I would love to connect! 

At that point, I will start to make some judgements about growth vs. payoff vs refi, etc.You could use the money to continue to accelerate the payoff of your primary then get a HELOC on the equity to fund the downpayment of a rental property if/when you find one.For me though, I'm making minimal payments on the mortgage and getting the investment snowball rolling as soon as I can.

That is, the real task is to find good like-minded people.

Now applying this to Philadelphia, you can easily go into areas of North Philadelphia or areas of SW Philadelphia just as examples and find properties that pencil as BRRRR's as easily as it is to pick produce out at a grocery store.

It is career ending.Take the time to learn the law, know how to verify ownership and reduce the trouble you will encounter along the way.

Buy: Find properties that are undervalued or in need of renovation.2.

I want to become real estate agent to use money to purchase properties and flip etc and find properties.

I would find out their affiliation to the area.4.

They all have their pros and cons and you will never find the perfect one. 

@Kyle Rucker- thanks ....you will have a tough time locating a 2nd loan for  180K +  ....Ask the realtor you are working with for options ...Make sure that the lender holding the FHA loan will be able to approve your assumption  request  ( this can be a long drawn out step ) .....if you do find a 2nd mtg - compare the fha loan and 2nd mtg  to a  simple new FHA or conventional loan as there may not be a large difference
