House hacking can certainly be a great way to build equity and reduce living expenses, but it’s essential to have a cushion in case your rental income doesn’t come in as expected or renovations take longer than planned.

Even being more experienced, I would have rather wholesaled or wholetailed this property knowing what I do now. 

If it’s over that amount they’ll send photos and quote that you can accept or shop around. 

Would love to connect and see how we might collaborate or share some insights.Here if you ever want to chat!

Are you the only one on title or is the contractor on title too?

I plan to buy and sell 10 or so more over the next few years.

If you pay more, you won't meet your metrics and will probably have negative cashflow and/or equity.You may have to make 10, 20 or even 100 offers to get one accepted at the price that meets your numbers.This is what all investors did BEFORE the Great Real Estate Crash of 2008-2010.

I don't have a lot of time or bandwidth to invest in a fixer-upper and I would like something with limited work.  

And this doesn't even address the risks they take coming to this country, like the women and children that are sexually abused or trafficked, the men that are killed, the drugs that are hauled over, etc.2. 

Are these forums a good place to connect with managing partners for JVs or syndications?
