I gave them $16K down over several payments then recently borrowed $14K from a private lender to pay off the balance.

She is now on the hook for the $1,500 EMD and she should not have to pay this.

What happens when I stop paying the mortgage payment on multiple properties?

Residents paying down mortgage5.

Look into ways to pay, like common loans, government-backed loans, or money from private people.

These situations often require immediate attention that might not align with your available hours due to the time difference.Regarding property management fees, these can vary widely and you might find that the rates are more reasonable than expected.

Pay to seller when lien lapses.

Pay a visit to the spot, as an OOS investor, for the first few house(s) projects probably 2-3x month.

So you are in 16k and paying maybe on average let's say 1k per month for 5 months. 

I personally use my HELOC for down payments on homes and then quickly pay if off, this allows me to always have a liquid down payment source on hand.
