At the end of the day, 99% of sellers and brokers only care about your surety to close (I leave out 1% that might care about HOW you operate your deals, regardless of price paid).The fact that you have never closed a large transaction AND are not providing all your proof of funds up front and/or talking with brokers about where the money is coming from, will give them some trepidation.  

Are you able to move into the property and make it your primary residence?

I still think if you're an investor, you need to run your numbers carefully. 

Rent to price ratios, # of new building permits vs new residents.

I know you said you don’t expect anything major on the properties soon, but I would take a careful look at what is most likely to need to be replaced soon and figure out how you would pay for that if it needed to be done tomorrow.

They take decent care of the property, but I would get texts all the time telling me to fix many things (some valid, some completely unnecessary) and would get upset if I ever denied any of the requests.

Appliances do break and you need to be ready take care of the bill when that does come around. 

We care about our investors' success, but it's ultimately up to each investor to take action to accomplish their goals however they do it!

Again, to reiterate, the risk is less burdened because the property also serves as your primary residence.

While I was running my inspection business, trying to build a real estate business, and taking care of 4 rentals with family, I was also going to night school to get a degree in MIS.
