I am not trying to build a large portfolio of rental properties, just basically let my equity do it's thing from a-far. 

This means every mandatory block is filled in, I have a copy of their photo ID, they provided me with supporting documentation, and they have paid the fee.

Hello.I have two duplex units in the Cleveland, Ohio area with a market value of $445,000 with two different lenders, and I currently have aspirations of building a 5-unit townhome in the area.
