Sure, I lost a few tenants due to job losses, but I had NO problems during that time refilling my vacants.

I am 24 years old in search of a better future with more control.

I have applied to many, many real estate investing companies in the area and sadly I am feeling lost as to what direction to move into. 

And then, if you don't refinance it out in the name of the new owner, you face going back into foreclosure again for the due on sale clause that no one thinks the lender actually does, but they actual do, daily.Totally lost on this one.

You, as the buyer, have all the control here.

Meanwhile, you will pay a very high price eroding whatever profit you expected or worse...going into negative losses as ongoing delays caused by Sherman Bridge Lending force you to pay spiked interest rates for an extended period of time leaving you at their mercy as they control your refi by threatening high fees as a penalty for seeking refi elsewhere.

However, is an extra 4% gain per year, on 150K (6K per year) really worth the loss of control?

A key difference between gambling and investing is control.

They will be a never ending string of problems due to lost jobs etc. and when they split up, and they will, they will both want to leave. 

I've lost thousands and thousands of dollars but I've learned a lot.
