The population growth seems to be slowing down and it’s already the most expensive market in the nation.

My name is Omar Santander a new investor that is interested in residential units (single-family and multifamily, with a particular emphasis on multiunit), house hacking, long-distance investing, BRRRR and mid/long-term rentals.

Quote from @Makani Donaldson: Even when the market was great for investors (2012 - 2020), most investors would say good cash flow was $200+ per unit, per month.

Since then I've bought two apartment complexes and will be building additional units on them using knowledge  and processes learned for Jerome and his colleagues.

Nothing illegal about doing that, but if caught, the lender may call the loan due and if you don't correct the situation or pay the loan off, they willstart mortgage foreclosure.3) You could also go the HELOC route to tap the equity in the home, but the 12-month owner-occupancy will also apply AND the interest rate on the HELOC will fluctuate with the Fed Fund Rate.4) You could do a cashout refi as an investment property, but that will be at an interest rate 0.5-1% higher than owner-occupied rate.Suggest you meet with 2-3 lenders to explore your options about the above.Once you have access to funds, recommend you buy a 2-4 unit with 20-25% down. - You can buy owner-occupied, live in one unit, and fix up and rent the other unit(s).- If you're handy, recommend buying a property in the worst condition you can tolerate.

We specialize in new construction SFHs and small multi unit buildings in Chicago. 

(It was Hollywood and everybody has dogs)2) Somebody tried selling the appliances that came with the unit which included the fridge, dishwasher, stove & microwave.3) We were recently affected by the fires and had to evacuate, some tenants refused to evacuate even after police forced them to because they were "tougher than the fire".Have you heard of those horror stories about tenants completely trashing apartments and feces all over the apartment?

The good thing about this is you can do a parent listing offering the whole place, as well as 2 other listings for each unit.
