Once that has been done I'd like to purchase a property walking distance from myself so I can keep an eye on the property and because I don't have a car.

$1.45M loan on a $2.2M property at 7.125%

Are you thinking more turnkey properties or fixer uppers?

Whether you own a single rental property or manage a portfolio of multifamily units, effective property management can be the difference between success and failure in real estate.What is Property Management?

You just can't use it as a rental property and have an owner-occupied loan.

I have all my properties with American Modern and Allstate.  

Conventional financing for this type of property is going to depend in large part on what the purpose of the purchase is as well as the specifics behind the property type.

I have friends who own properties with 5+ units who Airbnb 1-2 units in those buildings but again there are limits to the scalability thing. 

Also hoping to build my Team: lenders, realtors, contractors, property managers, etc. 

I should also mention that this property is a microloft (<300 sq ft) so fits just a single individual.
