The person I spoke to didn’t want to give me her husband’s name who is on the lease because they’re getting divorced.  2. lived in a duplex that changed ownership, I called them and sent a verification form over.

Thank you @John Mason.Do you have personal experience with this firm or some you know is good and reliable ?

You are looking to rent or buy a space with a partner to have a personal fitness business or just a class?

Also, keep in mind that just calling a rental property "long term" doesn't change the reality if you are really renting as short term.

Looking to NOT have to pay upfront fees, I know some fees and such will be in the closing which is expected but trying to keep fees as little as possible and not upfront. 

@Seo Hui Han onsite staff is there to mostly show the property and keep tabs on tenants and the grounds.

Instinctively I want to cash out and buy elsewhere, however, another part of me wants to just keep them as they are both making money.

Last year we were able to connect an investor of a coastal six plex with our personal credit union and due to strength of borrower and property, they provided a non-member with a 25% down mortgage with a 25 year amortization on a property the seller was requiring 'cash only' due to the presumed challenges of multi family financing. 

do ur due diligence on the individual. ask questions because this is interesting. take the cash if everything checks out. definitely keep an eye on the property. 

A great way to network and meet people in your local community is to attend in person meet ups.
