I strongly suggest you get a PM, (property manager).

Try to find a local credit union or regional bank with a strong commercial lending division.

I feel like with the BC market being so strong you will likely need to sell at least one property to be a competitive buyer in BC.Another thing to consider is what happens to the status of your primary residence if you turn it into a rental.

Would you recommend pledging an account vs. using cash for a downpayment to somebody in a strong financial position with a high paying W-2 job?

1031 exchange with a qualified intermediary.Hubbard clause where it allows them to sell their home first before buying.Have a strong buyer lined up off market who is patient, then when they have found their new target property, sell to the buyer off market.

I strongly recommend that you join NARPM.org and then find a local chapter to join.

It's not uncommon to find strong older homes that have been remodeled in the past twenty or thirty years and have updated electrical, plumbing and windows.

After nine months of posting my first post, my husband bought a new house in Brookside, KCMO.

In this seller's market, if there are multiple offers, a 203k loan will not be as strong as a conventional loan.  2.

It is a strong house with lots of potential, and good bones.
