If you have good credit, I would put that on a credit card in a heart beat, that is, if that can be paid with a credit card.  

I know it's tempting to ride the train, and I'm definitely a passenger riding with my duplex, but my biggest downside for me is that I'm stuck living in the duplex a few extra years, with my roommate and tenants paying the rent.  

But if you have a good track record and dealt with other people that are investors then yes a realtor with help you out in a heart beat.

It's not for the faint of heart. 

The seller had open heart surgery and cannot keep up any longer.Because of the nature of this complex being (sort of) a halfway house vacancies/non-payers I'm estimating at 20% (verified by the seller when we met for over an hour yesterday).

This issue of “assumption” was the same question posed to me by my better half (bless her heart)!  

It is definitely not meant for the faint of heart.  

I bought this as a value add that was half empty and only have one small space left to lease.I am looking at a small 4400 sq ft building that is in the heart of downtown Scottsdale. 

I believe with all of my heart that people can do great things when they come together with a positive attitude and vision in mind.

Rent goes for 750-800 in the heart of Birmingham.
