Initial condo purchase JE using the closing disclosure2.

I closed on my first rental property 2 weeks ago with an inherited tenant in Philadelphia.

What are your thoughts on buying with cash to be competitive with the offer in a multiple offer scenario and then finance the property immediately after closing to get the cash back?

They are "priced to perfection" and the numbers don't even come close to penciling out if someone has to get a 30 year mortgage. 

I've always wanted to do everything myself.But maybe it's time...to search for a partner.If I want to close this deal, it's what I need.

I went to UW Madison and have family in MKE so try and follow the Wisconsin rental market closely!

. - Because nothing really came that close, I ended up just buying notes directly.

My only concern is what if they close shop or sell their business?

I'm a broker and investor in NYC, actually closed on an investment property my clients that are RNs bought :) If you're looking to start out, what helped me the most was reading about REI as well as attending local meetups to get a 'lay of the land' on what other investors and brokers are working on. 

I didn't find out all of this until after closing.
