House hacking a multi-family is a great way to start in real estate, and connecting with others in Southington will help you build a strong network.

the marketing must be different than a $400,000 home- What aspects of real estate do the multi million dollar buyer look for, As opposed to a couple hundred thousand dollar home? 

This question is one that has been asked and answered like a billion times, but the search on here isn't the greatest.The short version is - unless you have cash to buy or are getting a DSCR loan or buying a commercial property, you aren't starting an LLC to put this in.

Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

I don’t want to underutilize the equity on this property so I feel like taking out 100 grand on our Primary where the rates suck already and it will only cost me an extra 600 or 700 bucks a month. 

With HMLs and cash in place, it sounds like you’re set up for success as you move into BRRRRs and multi-family investments.

Multiple, billion dollar companies are investing heavy in our area, such as Intel, Google, and Amazon.

We will take the quick deal any day over making a few extra thousand bucks.  

This friend informed me of an investment opportunity in Dubai renting out flats (multi room apartments) by the room.

I would look into whether you really need a multi-member LLC at this point.
