My guess is overall this is going to look less attractive adding in more of those expenses. 

I think the best route is to test the demand in the market for a longer-term tenant and if that ends up not producing ideal results go to the STR.

I would search out the top 2 producing agents and use them. 

Id like to take advantage of a 40 year loan term to help make the cash flow more attractive.

You might ask a title company to produce a commitment so you can see what they will require to issue a policy w/o exception for the mtg and then you'll probably need to talk with a knowledgeable PA real estate litigation attorney.

To do that they'll search the title and produce a commitment telling you what they require to issue a policy w/o an exception for other possible interests. 

Of course the market plays a huge factor in this, but if you can flip the property and make it an attractive buy for your buyer pool then why not do the deal?

You may also ask for additional compensation, as not clearing the debt from your books as they were hired to do could be costing you income-producing activities.All of that said, you need legal representation right away.  

Purchase price: $150,000 Cash invested: $50,000 Has a larger multi-garage on the lot, those are all rented out and producing income.

Putting the money on a CC, while attractive from a mileage standpoint, could drop your score if you max the card out enough that it affects the rate on your refi.
