Every time I get a couple grand built up I end up paying some big expense on one of the properties so it does not feel like I am getting ahead to be able to buy another property.

If the burden of managing the property is weighing on you, you should consider getting a property manager.Not sure what your cashflow is, but I'd assume you can take the few hundred grand of profits and parlay that into a much higher monthly cashflow considering that although the home prices are higher these days, the interest rates have reverted to near record lows recently.Without all of the financial details, I cannot say conclusively what you should do, but if it were me, I'd look to sell and reinvest the profits in more properties.

If you have a couple hundred grand, then maybe you can do it. 

That will come to a grand total of $333,000 a month minus you expenses of maintaing the building itself.

My other option is to wholesale it for a couple grand profit.

Put the loan in a trust in your kids/grand kids name(s).

You can buy it at 125 and it’s worth 250 after only 30 grand of rehab .. you sure about that .

William, the first time the IRS and Homeland Security show up on your doorstep with a federal grand jury subpoena will be the last time you are willing to risk your liberty for something as silly as a few thousand bucks on a down payment.

Right now I'd probably have to hunt down the great-grand children, which might be 50 people or so. 

That's a grand total of 936.What you are doing is paying $15,000 for $936.
