Probably something simple I am missing or the deal just doesn't make sense.3 condos, the owner has 14 out possible 48 in this complex and if the deal goes through may lead to more deals with her.the condos are 1/1, 2/1 and 2/2, she is asking 76k for the 2 2/1s and 64k for the one bedroom. total 216k, she would hold a second position note for 30k with me putting down the remainder of the 20% down (13,200) and pay closing costs. she would like 6 payments, one each year of 5200 for 6 years which comes out to 31200 total, about 1.5% interest rate if my calculations are correct.For simplicity, I am counting the 3 as a triplex, so rental income is 2325/month, tenants pay for electric and gas, HOA of 185(555) per pays for water, sewer and garbage as well as exterior and common area maintenance, snow removal, grass cutting, etc. taxes are 266 and insurance is 50 month (HO-6) policy which I hadn't heard of before.

They write their name or property address on the deposit slip and I can view the actual deposit slip.I also use Zelle which is instantly transferred to my bank account and is supported by all the major banks and is likely built into your banks app.I do not venmoe, it is slow and I have better 3rd parties.I also have some that use ACH transfers.All of these that I use are free to use.If they don't pay on their own then I give them a warning and if that doesn't work I start the eviction.I want rent to come in with no interaction from me.
