@Daniel O., thanks for the cold, emotionless honesty.I could pick and choose a few decisions to nitpick, but you're not looking for that, don't need that, and it seems to me like needless piling on.The one thing I will comment on is the idea of a landlord feeling like he must/should generate consistent cashflow on a fully mortgaged property, especially when the mortgages in question are 20-year or less. 

@Daniel Nguyen You could always have several structural engineers look at the property to quote on the estimated cost of repairs.

Thank you @Daniel Kurkowski

Daniel

., @Daniel Dawson and @Ariel Nixon for your feedback!

@Daniel Golub i you want to take your time learning about entities and how to run them the DIY route is fine.

@Daniel Ribeiro Out of that list Norwood and Evanston are the only places that aren’t overpriced.

There's a mixed feeling of stress and joy that I actually find rather pleasant, but it would be alleviated if someone could offer advice on how to approach lenders on this forum.Thanks for listening,Daniel Rogers

My realtor is @Daniel Kurkowski, he's excellent, and I don't think he's taking on any additional residential clients.
