Additional Question:Is it possible a lender give you a close to a primary residence interest rate for your investment property ? 

I'm afraid this is the cash you are expecting at closing.

If we come even close to our budget at the end, we will have solid equity on paper.

Spend some time conducting in-depth research, including speaking with a professional in the field, and base your choices on your objectives, your tolerance for risk, and the particulars of the markets in the locations you are considering.Good luck!

Hey Gino, I would start by looking at reviews, previous closings, etc..

If you overpaid in 2020-2023, based upon bubble multiples, the picture isn't as rosy.You have a choice to make:  Cut your losses or grind it out.

I worked for a nearly century-old trucking company, YELLOW FREIGHT, which closed in August 2023.

I have done close to 20 evictions, from personal experience You're better off to set boundaries with your tenants.
