I had planned on liquidating a standard brokerage account for the down payment.

If there was a large increase in taxes or insurance, we would make the increase larger and explain why.

Some larger commercial lenders on 4+ unit deals will fund rehabs but they are more relationship driven.

And if you decided it's not for you, you could have your capital liquidated within minutes versus dealing with repairs, paying realtor, escrow, title fees, and waiting for a buyer.  

Cash flow is pennies on the dollar compared to the cost of the asset, it is more of a defensive measure to ensure you have liquid assets to maintain the property. 

And eventually liquidated their properties and began private lending in both realestate and other ventures.And so, they showed me their home.

I have access to easily over $100K in liquid capital not including anywhere from $60-70k in unrealized equity should I sell my co-op(which is the intention.)

Electric Boat is bringing more and more jobs in as they continue to rack up government contracts to build larger and larger submarines for the foreseeable future.

If there is an out of the ordinary issue or larger than normal expense then the property manager contacts us for approval, but other than that they know our expectations and manage the property accordingly.

It was too small for the whole crew and she had health issues, so the family decided to sell in order to purchase a larger home.
