See if the buyer will offer daughter cash for that ( grand piano ) in the basement ?

I'm also in a similar spot, though I did close on a house out of state, but I am looking for something more grand, like an MFH/Apartment type building in MA. 

Your giving away almost 3 grand a year by being “nice “Is this a charity or an investment ?

I especially liked the colorful Waimea valley, even more than the Grand Canyon and I got a lot of gruff for saying I liked Poipu beach  the best.

I bought the first property 10 months ago, and thanks to the education I've received on BiggerPockets I was able to use some of the equity on the first deal to buy the second.The first deal was a grand slam.

You can easily spend a couple Grand just on permit fees at least in my state lol and not pulling any permits can lead to huge fines.

Keep it simple, and keep interest out of it if possible. i.e. 200,000 purchase price, 10 grand down and 100 payments of $2k.

buying $40k houses, maybe rich uncle will give you the $, but good luck finding someone to lend you 100 grand. 

My credit score is only like 670 which is below what conventional loans like to see and I only have about 3 grand to my Name.
