Anyone know if you could get approved for a load of if or whenever the next market crashes?

We could sell the rental, pay capital gains, and wipe out our entire debt load except for one mortgage. 

Reasons.. .. with that being said short version is you have think of a partnership as a whole body, each partner carrying their set weight. once your partnership is whole you can do more, but if any part of that body is weak then the partnership deteriorates, finding the right partners is hard. but worth it, keep meeting new people, and protect your interests with legal documentation

From there, I will weight them based off whether they are inferior or superior to the property I’m analyzing, which is the tricky part.

I'm aiming for an FHA Loan, 3.5% down, 4.85% interest, not quite 35% equity out of the gate.If, for example, I can get a duplex in Manchester that would offer 7% CoC (acting as if I'm a tenant), but I can afford the mortgage on my own without a tenant, would the weight of a downturn in the market be a smaller concern?

You may need a few more loads of stone, you will needs a few more light fixtures and you may not like the cheap flooring.

My private mortgage lender is allowing me to use a conventional load with as little as 5% down. 

I just did a google search for banks in Massachusetts and you were right; went to the website and it's loaded with information! 

I would really look at the numbers to see how good of a deal this is with you include load payments into numbers. 

I'd then hope he thinks he's screwed me over and I'd hope he really doesn't want to load up 2 toilets as he drives away and therefore he'd leave them.Then I'd keep any portion of his deposit that I was legally entitle to keep.
