Use the loan that I just used to buy my first duplex in MN: Portfolio-Conventional Loan with only 3% Down Payment and NO Mortgage Insurance (yes this loan really exists).

I am unable to reach them - they are not picking up phones / nor answering the door.I would like to give them 2 options - Renew for 1 year (same terms as existing lease -- I got a standard residential lease from staples)Vacate the placeIs there any standard / legal cover letter that I can send via postal mail ? 

Asking price is 475,000 and we believe the existing mortgage to be just shy of that.  

Once a portal exists, creating an offering shouldn't be an issue.

What options have people used if say the existing tenants aren't fully moved out, or left it in a condition that needs repairs that the new tenants couldn't move in yet?  

p.s. if someone knows of an existing thread that does this, feel free to share as I may have missed it!

But, as soon as spring comes around, they will pretend you don't exist...

From what I've learned, it is mentioned often about using equity in existing properties for down payments on more properties.

Most are 3 to 5 years and some push to 7. 10 is out there but very tough to get.Most asset classes cycle every 7 to 10 years so you want at least that amount of time with a loan so you can refi or sell at the optimal time and not because you used short term debt for a stabilized asset where the existing cash flow is the main return.  

Seems a shame since the existing one was only 2 years old, but decided it was simpler and probably not much more expensive since dishwashers don't cost that much.
