@Bradley MairThe strategy involves buying properties as primary residences, resulting in lower down payments and better cash flow.

Your best bet might be joining a local real estate club.  

But you'd have to be quite involved initially, especially to get access to better SBA lending. 

If they don't, consider involving an attorney.

I’d love to have real estate provide some financial freedom/flexibility and create a portfolio that I could eventually get my kids involved with and pass down to them, but I end up feeling frozen/stuck based on the factors above. 

Since there’s no recorded lien and they weren’t involved during the foreclosure, it sounds like they’re pushing boundaries by attempting to enforce something without proper documentation.

The BRRRR strategy and tax lien investing are both great approaches, especially when you’re getting started and want to maximize your investments.I’m involved in the investment real estate space as well, primarily focusing on new construction duplexes in downtown Indianapolis.

As low as the market went for mortgages and housing shortage, the only sure bet in my opinion is housing prices will continue to rise. 

Real estate investing is what your all about in this post, the podcasters have moved on to more of a hotel type business, involves real estate but more importantly it’s a hands on business not a real estate investment.

Your best bet is to ensure that there are no material modifications that would in any way harm or even moderately delay the ability to rent it out and qualify as a normal SFR (one lease, one family) or sell on the market to an owner-occupant
