However I drove past a sign the other day that had a message on it along the lines of someone looking for beginners to help out making $1000-$10,000 a week while learning the ropes of real estate?

I got lost about half way through. paragraph ˈperəˌɡraf/nounnoun: paragraph; plural noun: paragraphs1. a distinct section of a piece of writing, usually dealing with a single theme and indicated by a new line, indentation, or numbering.synonyms:section, subdivision, part, subsection, division, portion, segment, passageMore"the concluding paragraph" report, article, item, sidebar, piece, write-up, mention"a paragraph in the newspaper" verbverb: paragraph; 3rd person present: paragraphs; past tense: paragraphed; past participle: paragraphed; gerund or present participle: paragraphing1. arrange (a piece of writing) in paragraphs.

Nobody is expecting much from borrowers on these loans. if your finances are run properly, you provide all stips quick and clean, and you know what you're doing, then you're in the best possible position. the lender will order an appraisal. if you buy one, they won't use it

What is the bottom line?

I was informed by a neighbor that as recently as a couple years ago, the one house was basically a brothel, it's been cleaned up once the neighbors got the police involved but I imagine the tenants aren't the best.   

Clean up the property.2.

The budget has 10% management fee which is expected but then there’s a separate line item for site manager payroll at 5k.

*Note: I'm a net-worth investor myself, along the lines of what you're describing. 

I imagine the financing you have on the property is very good, and it might be nice to use the home equity line of credit instead since you could then take advantage of having equity while still maintaining the better interest rate from 2015.
