I am also planning more extensive renovations to modernize the home, which will further enhance its appeal and value.

It was quite extensive, all new electrical, hvac, plumbing as well as foundation, painting, floors and yardwork and demo of shed.

My last one was my biggest one which included a 1000 sqft extension to an 1100 sqft single-family house.

Keeping this as a rental would not cover the mortgage (we'd have to pay ~1500 a month including utilities) and we can afford the extra payment, but is it worth it when looking at appreciation?

Most real estate property syndicates utilize 50% or more leverage.  

Looking for some understanding about because of my planned exit strategy.I have some questions about: 1> Cash Out Refi LTV: Single assets versus multiple properties2> Terms and best practices:3> Utilizing a Realtor4> Personal Guarantees: Stabilized/ Performing vs Personal creditSet up:Utilizing non amortized seller financing to acquire the property @ 35000/60 months.Rehab Estimates are not in in yet the property.

Leverage is fine, if it's utilized appropriately.

Hello Everyone, I am positioning myself to purchase a house hack where I will be utilizing the rent by the rent room strategy.

Utilities are absent.

But realized they were a lot more hoops to jump through with the city to make it a separate dwelling unit so we have opted to make it an extension of the home.
