Personal raise How did you add value to the deal?

Obviously tough to give advice based on minimal info and no info on your personal situation.

Market timing, properly acquired property, personal capital available How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Now the tenant may have a legitimate personal injury claim and more.3) "Citing Renters Insurance declined coverage"- So, tenant has Renters Insurance?

What appears to be great "curb appeal" to one person might be overwhelming to another. 

I'm also starting off my own personal investment property journey with my husband. 

However, aside from that, I couldn’t find much information about them, and the only online presence seems to be the wife’s LinkedIn profile (though I’ve never met her in person and am just going off her profile picture on Zillow).After submitting the application through Zillow, we attached our income (two months of pay stubs for each of us from our current jobs), work references, credit and criminal background, rental history, and the contact info for our current landlord (who just so happens to be my fiancé’s father).

I signed up with them about 3 to 4 months ago, then found out how expensive the loan was to get going with them and told them that I would self finance it instead but they had to cancel the loan first...they use a company called Special Financing Company..the person I spoke to at REI his name is Paul, he said he would take care of canceling the loan, but a month later I realized that they were pulling $599 out of my bank account.

Most margin loans and SBLOC are Prime + or FFR +, and the ones Im familiar with are 8-13% right now.The only other thing I can think of is that if you're a HNW with a good relationship with your private banking team, maybe theyll give your a personal line based on your net worth and assets with them.
