If you need eyes and ears or want an opinion on a specific property, I am always happy to assist. 

Most do not follow it which is you can have someone assist in capital raise but it cannot be their only function - it must be less than 50%.

I have a few reasons for this. 1) We are both self-employed and our income is inconsistent. 2) We don't want to impact our DTI, because we are planning on buying a house hack within the next year or so.We would be open to going up to 6 units for our first property as long as it's within budget.Now that you have some context, is it possible for a rookie to use a DSCR loan on a duplex or triplex?

The typical clients that seek out cost segregation studies include:Real estate companies that buy and sell multiple properties each year.Individuals with a portfolio containing investment properties including apartment buildings, multi-family homes and even single residences.Franchise owners with properties that are similar to one another such as assisted living facilities, storage facilities and golf courses.Business owners of hotels, food facilities, shopping centers, restaurants or manufacturing plants.It depends on the type of property, but generally 15-45% of the building’s costs can be classified into assets with a shorter life.

Let me know if I can assist in any way, I started in 2019 and investing has been good to me, I'm happy to share what I learned.

I recently read people making up to 117k a year can qualify for public assistance in SF.  

I think if the industry as a whole was a little more honest with it self and with market participants you might not have as many waiting for something that is not likely to happen in the short term. if you need a house, you need a house. but, if you think something will change in 6 months you might be able to hold on, but if it likely will not change in the near term you might just bite the bullet and buy.

It's also important to be aware of any deed restrictions or covenants that could impact your intended use of the property.A Personal Anecdote:I once assisted a client in Omaha who purchased a Freddie Mac home intending to convert it into a rental property.
