Here’s what I would do:  engage a real estate consultant holding the CRE designation to provide advice as to your options and the anticipated time and proceeds of each.   

I can also tell you that a personal loan for DP will make it more difficult for the note-holder to sell the loan at a later time if it's discovered by the note buyer. 

Apply the same rental screening criteria as you do all other applicants  also, the use of the phrase "blend in" could be construed as a Fair Housing issue  There are A LOT of laws for landlording now, especially in Massachusetts, that can easily and detrimentally nail an unaware landlord. if you have any questions, feel free to give me a call  We have property management clients throughout Quincy and I'm happy to just have an informative conversation with you   

If you managed it yourself hire a PM.

Hi Ying find a lender like mine, CMG where we offer the ability to refinance as many times as you want every 6 months for the next 5 years and all the lender fees are waived as well as the appraisal paid for if needed 

I'd get a GC (if you have time) and get a firm-ish SOW and price.

You can always transition this into a full time investment in 6-12 months if the equity is atleast 90% LTV. 

Hey everyone, What software are you using to manage your work? 

It is not "okay", it's just a matter of time.
