In the next 2 years, I'll be looking to purchase a MFR to househack. with the idea of reinvesting all of the cashflow to help scale.

Quote from @Brandon Le: Your first purchase could/should be a house hack.

The substitute of collateral was more of a scenario where you sold for $155K, and instead of paying off the $88K loan in your scenario, those funds stayed at the title company and were used on a cash purchase happening nearby in date.

I've not yet invested in my first property, but I plan to purchase my first one by the end of 2023.
