Unfortunately, I listened to them and now the market seems to be a seller's market.Over time I became focused on other things, such as my education and working.

I talked to a couple inspectors to educate myself and they both told me that if there were any areas on the exterior that they couldn't access and they visually observed peeling paint they would have to flag it.

You have to tell them because it affects their collateral Title should reveal the property is landlocked with no easements and that should start the questioning  If you want to continue to build a relationship with this bank you tell them now before they find out you’ve been keeping this bit of information to yourself You might be surprised When I worked at a bank we used to help people try to solve stuff like this all the time 

I have been very successful with this and continue to do it today.  

Anyone have any suggestions on some resources I could use to educate myself further?

So I have decided to pursue becoming an agent as a foundational part of my real estate investing education.Any recommendations for sponsoring brokers or licensure education in the Cincinnati area?

Do not continue to engage the tenants.

These are young professionals who probably dropped 200k on an MIT education and you think they are suddenly going to destroy their credit and ability to rent in the area where all of the jobs in their related field are because they can't come up with rent?

Interesting... when loans are sold to the secondary market, but the original lender continues to service the loan, does the original lender get a service fee?

My main question is whether to rehab, refinance and pay the back the 401 to avoid fees, or BRRR to continue growing my portafolio and hope to recover the fees paid at some point (ROI).
