I bought a multi-unit property and kept it for 37 years, coincidentally the previous owner had owned the property for 37 years. 

I've been living in Sydney, AU for the past 3 years with my wife, but we'll be moving back to the US within the year.

Hey All,I signed on to IIP management after a horrendous experience with Greater Eastern management last year, but it feels as if I've moved to another money sucking/non-transparent property management company.

If you believe rates are going to go lower in the next couple years you should wait. 

My problem is my heloc payment is on a 10 year schedule so it's around 1400$ a month. 

This property doesn’t strike me as an ideal rental of any kind.But perhaps, you could reach out to BMW or Michelin as one of their executives may be brought to Greenville for a year or two assignment.

Our goal as a family is to move outside the US in the next 3-4 years and live half way around the world for the foreseeable future (5+ years). 

I have a custody situation for my 11 yr old that limits my ability to move too far away.

As a local we enjoy the tradewinds maybe once every year.

In my experience when I have dealt dirrectly with sellers on a FSBO , it was quick and easy , even my first purchase at 23 years old with no experience .
