rent is still growing, but I have a great tenant base and we are looking for stable tenants.

Look for something that needs cosmetics work, such as new flooring, paint, cabinets, etc, as this will help build value and get the most rent.   

This led to the buyer's agent asking why this was not disclosed in the SRPD.

Hello, I've been looking into buying my first property and wanted to use a conventional loan on a 2-4 unit property.

A bad PM can destroy the best investment.

Financing either is a bad idea and will raise a red flag with a lender who will look at sources and uses of the loan request.

It could be helpful to have a real estate attorney look over these agreements for added security. 

Hi guys,I bought my family home 3 years ago and looking to get my first SFR investment property.

I started looking at property areas long before selling and then went out more aggressively when the relinquished went under contract.The exchange company I used was @Dave Foster (The 1031x Investor and Exchange Resource Group) and the title company for both relinquished and replacement was @Tom Gimer of Eastern Title & Settlement.

Saying you are an "investor" to the property manager etc or someone onsite you probably are going to get looked at like you have six heads.
