This is an incredible community to call home!

Lake side homes are more desirable for short term rentals in this area but not impossible to accomplish.

Self managed HOAs are usually undercapitalized so you want to take a thorough review of the condition of the community to make sure there isn’t deferred maintenance because you might get hit with a special assessment if the board isn’t setting aside cash for those capital improvements.At face value, taking into consideration my typical financial objectives, I wouldn’t do this deal unless it was a much lower price.

It is a bit more saturated with buyers and overall sale price of homes are higher.

I found a listing in Northern California on Zillow that is vacant land with approved plans for building a home.

However, if stability and long-term appreciation are priorities, saving for a higher-end property while building equity in your current home could be a solid strategy.

Typically will be rent by rent strategy (which is tough for none owner occupants) or College rental.   

I wanted to see if anyone is familiar with or can recommend paid mentorship programs or coaches for small multifamily unit investing (2-4 units).In my research, I’ve found that most mentorship programs or resources I come across are geared toward large syndication apartment building purchases or other types of investments, such as short-term rentals, medium-term rentals, single-family homes, Section 8, or fix-and-flip projects.

My home is upstate NY.

Typically, a client that has a STR and materially participates should be able to take advantage of a cost segregation done on the property.
