If your lease includes this provision, I recommend issuing a lease violation notice for not allowing maintenance to enter and carry out essential repairs.  

In my contracts I always ask for more earnest money than I put in myself, that way, it covers some of your carrying costs and due diligence related costs.

And the property manager is the only person with a long-term interest in your property, so their opinion carries a lot of weight!

ALL taxable gains carry over for the rest of your life or until you choose to sell without exchanging.

Hi @Faris WrightAnything written by Brandon Turner is gold. 

Can't you get your builder's risk policy from the same agent you currently carry your general liability (for your GC business) with? 

I do carry STR insurance myself that allows arbitrage and it costs several times as much as landlord insurance.

Aside from the responses above regarding the bank likely requiring the 20% funds to be yours, good luck finding any private lender willing to take a second position note on a 100% LTV for any %, let alone a tiny 3%.Now, banks do, at times, allow seller carried back seconds, but unlikely with no skin in the game from the borrower.

CalPERS was considered the gold standard of pension programs but it's a shell of its former self due to mismangement and unfunded liabilities.

I then took that money, paid off most of my debt, and then started looking for a place where the owner would carry the note and I could afford the down payment.The only thing I could find that met those requirements was a 100-year-old house that had been converted some decades ago into three, one-bedroom apartments.
