I assume it’s not high enough that you or any family members want to take on the job?

I have been househacking on and off for about 4 years.

Check out Whit B. on Bigger Pockets posts.

I've bought a couple sub-to's in the past and about to close on one next week. 

I am very interested in real estate investments, and I’ve just started dipping my toes into information and I’m reading a beginners book on real estate investing.

You also only pay interest on the amount you use.

@Natasha Rooney congrats on moving forward!

Even better, I might be able to snag it well under market value since it's an estate sale that's been sitting on the market for nearly 200 days.Here’s the challenge: while I could afford to purchase the property under market value, I’d be stretching my budget thin to cover the mortgage during the period I’d be remodeling the basement to make it rentable.

After that point, you manage the tenancy until they move on. 

I'm making a healthy downpayment cash by doing a cash out refinance on three of my established properties that I know can cover the debt service handily.
