Advise on owner occupied multifamily househack?

[Courtney Mccrear]

Investing into Real Estate the last 2 years has been the BEST rollercoaster ever. A literal rollercoaster, but after 2 years I can say Real Estate has allowed me to achieve paying off 80k in consumer debt/ credit cards. Majority of which came from not doing my due diligence from a GC and getting burned for 50k, but wholesale and tax sales have turned it all around!

Getting to the point though… I just subto’d my primary home. I would like to acquire a multifamily in Houston Tx by August. I have 10k in reserves and no debt, what would be your best suggested route to acquire a light rehab multifamily in Houston Metro?

I have my Va loan so I can get traditional lending rather easy by just going on market, but I would like to save that as my last option!

Could anyone give me any advice on managing an owner occupied multifamily?
