I offer pre-acquisition services as well.

About a third are paid off and my reserves and bank accounts allow me to loan some money without jeopardizing my business.I am a leading member of my local REIA and have met with someone from the group who has flipped abut 6-7 houses and is interested in working with me on her next flip. 

Our HOA decided to reassign the reserved parking spots and give them to "owners that live there". 

I wouldn't do it unless you got a good deal, remember the banks going to let you refi up to 80%,also the property has to be rented out for 6months prior. if I were you I would aim a little lower with price jus incase any unexpected repairs and cash reserves

No other major hurdles other than some weeks it's definitely a side job, getting new guests in, providing great customer service, cleaning/fixing the property.

I use QB and also their payment service to accept ACH payment from all of my tenants.

That is not uncommon when paying something online there is usually a "service fee" for just that reason.

They will spell out what they need to see in the deal and your personal finances in order to make it happen.If for some reason you dont have the cash reserves the banks like to see to do multifamily, then go do some flips to generate some cash!

What if I were to do the house hacking thing to build up my cash reserves, would that work?
