That is a damned good idea.

ask about if there's any outstanding maintenance issues that haven't been addressed?   

Term: When is the outstanding principal due?

Man, investing is so similar to parenting - everyone has an opinion on what's best for your kids and they will absolutely tell you about exactly how you're messing up (like I am doing,.. damn hypocrite).  

I found this to be helpful in the beginning, hopefully you will aswell ...acceleration clauseA clause in your mortgage which allows the lender to demand payment of the outstanding loan balance for various reasons.

A damn shame...

Same with court fees.By the way, my lease includes a clause for "Application of Rent" that says any payments made are applied to outstanding charges in the following order:Tenant-caused billingsNSF fees, late fees, service feesUtilitiesSecurity depositUnpaid rent (oldest to newest)Let's say the tenant owes $600 in unpaid rent, $100 in utility, and $50 for the eviction notice.

At this point the units are all leased out, gross rents are 9k, value of building is about 1.875M based on reasonable comparables, current loan outstanding is 600k, building cost to complete about 1.45M.I need to refinance, simple reason is I need to takeout equity from this property so I can build more homes elsewhere (have 8 homes planned to build in the next year).

@Costin I.Those were outstanding links including the second to last forum thread which I read all 132 comments.

Achieving the outstanding RE returns takes time and effort.
