Move into the apartment and update it while living there?

Quickly accessible.

Having shown many tenant occupied properties, it is VERY difficult to gain access. 

You just have to know what you're doing and have the right access to deals and contacts on the ground.

If there is no deal available you are better off paying down debt provided you always have access to capital.

Sometimes, if their lending criteria changes after you've owned the properties for several years, the lender will want to credit your sale proceeds toward loan paydown and effectively not allow you access to as much equity as you want from the sale of one of the two properties.

We bought a 32 unit apartments, with 10% down, 20% seller financing, 70% bank financing.

In the event that it doesn't, a few extra hours each year is worth the direct market access a license provides.- Knowing your market is key - what better way to learn it than to have real-time access to all current sales, pending transactions, etc?

My apartment is in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania right next to Temple University's campus (I'm a student).
