Purchase price: $136,000 Cash invested: $90,000 Sale price: $260,000 full renovation from studs What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I have 2 SFH, both purchased using house hacking.

Typical equity build up time is 5 years, depending on your market.But can you purchase another rental using your own capital?

This is my first purchase, where my intent was to install recessed lighting all throughout the house.

The purchase price of this property was only $170K. 

I am looking into purchasing a second (vacation) home and would love to hear your thought on the pros and cons of going a conventional 30-year second mortgage vs. using a HELOC or Home Equity Loan on my Primary Residence to purchase the second home outright. 

I know this is above and beyond what most municipalities require, but being fair will make the whole process easier.Additionally, a new landlord can reduce the 60-90-day notice by offering more moving assistance (cash and/or labor) if they move sooner rather than later.

Your best/safest bet would be a regular lease combined with an option to purchase.

I've seen VA loans close with backend DTI ratios in the 60s and low 70s.VA loans can be used for multifamily purchases with 0% down as long as the veteran will live in one of the units.

What if I told you that you could purchase your house by only paying for 20% of the property value?
