I understand moving out of your home and occupying a unit in a duplex may be the best financial decision but make sure it’s the best decision for your family because transitioning from a single family house to an apartment with a family of 4 is not always the easiest transition.

Thankfully we are commercial bank clients so our rates are as low as you can get in the market place for anyone who is not Lennar or DR horton or those types.Do you pre-sell houses without hedging a percentage of the supply?  

A more realistic expectation is 24 hours which will ensure we can arrange any repairs or corrections with a team, handle it in person, etc. be curious how this plays out as I worked for local developer for a while and developed several properties in Alexandria (Specifically old town) and while the city is challenging like any city - they were mostly realistic.

@Michael Davisstart with a house hack

Specifically, under a properly structured Trust the following limitations will apply during the period that the property is held by the Trust: (i) the Trust cannot raise new capital; (ii) other than in the case of a tenant bankruptcy or insolvency, the Trust cannot renegotiate or modify an existing loan nor can the Trust refinance or enter into a new loan during the period that the property is held by the Trust; (iii) the Trust cannot renegotiate or modify its existing leases or enter into new leases other than in the case of a tenant bankruptcy or insolvency (in the case of a Trust that adopted a master lease structure, this limitation applies to the master lease and not the underlying third-party leases); (iv) the Trust cannot reinvest the proceeds from the sale of the property; (v) the Trust cannot modify or improve the property other than undertaking normal maintenance or minor non-structural repairs; (vi) the Trust cannot hold its reserves other than in cash or short-term obligations; and (viii) the Trust must distribute all of its cash, other than cash held for normal reserves, on a current basis.

A contractor left a back door open one day and someone walked into the house and stole $2000 worth of tools.

Starting with house hacking is a smart move, especially in a higher-cost area.

I am specifically looking in Essex county, MA because I want to house back close enough to my current W-2 job.

I'm a recent graduate and I was wondering how can I get access to a DSCR loan without having a credit score, not being an us citizen, now owning a house (some DSCR loans require that you own at least one other house) and not having a job.

You are considering putting a tiny home on your existing property as an ADU or using that money to save up and buy the next investment property and wondering which would be the wiser choice.I think ADUs can help provide additional, much needed, housing.
