I like the idea of paying down your debts and getting rid of a car payment, but you can do this much quicker with access to that capital you are locking up. 

Duplex is worth between 160-180k.I was thinking about paying off duplex to increase cash flow and then taking out heloc to still have access to funds.

You always have access to your CONTRIBUTIONS (not earnings/growth) tax and penalty free.  

I also tried contact support to see if I need to upgrade membership to have more access to people but haven’t received a response.

She was also very accessible to her good clients and took calls on a Sunday night at 10pm.

As a Realtor, you have access to the MLS and insight that an investor might not have.

The easiest method is obviously using an agent as they have access to this information quickly.

These associations are incredibly valuable for education, advice, access to legal forms,  screening services, networking,  etc.If there is not already a tenant in place, be sure you understand how to properly and legally screen.   

I have access to contractors and handymen. 

Additionally, if the machines are damaged, you know who is accountable.If you are compelled to have a common laundry room then you need to explore access restrictions (keyed or keycode) and, possibly, surveillance.
