Are you looking to live in one unit and rent the others? 

To any experienced investors willing to show me the ropes a little more in detail be more then happy to message me, I live in the Southern California area to be a little more precise.

My wife and I have done all the terms (short, mid, long term rentals) and have done some live in flips.

Oh I agree with you if that rent will be a business income to live on vs just an unrealized gain.

My dream is to achieve financial freedom through multifamily rental properties and live life on my own terms.Recently, I have been reading one book after another, trying to absorb as much information as possible, and am extremely thankful to finally find this amazing community.

Will you be living in the property? 

My most trusted and often used contractor who lives in the area, and is practically a friend is the emergency contact.   

My credit should be the highest allowable also and I shouldn't have problems with approval.Ok, i shopped about 80 lenders (based on Fridays rates, market is closed so no live pricing)Conventional Full Doc loan you would be at 7.875% if you put 20% down (you said what the house was worth, but not your purchase price). 

We currently live in Houston, TX but we will be relocating to the Seattle/Bellevue area this summer for work.

My property manager called (I live in Denver) and told me they got it turned off pretty quickly, but a whole wall's worth of drywall was damaged.
