Hi,I'm looking for some advice on how to create the right strategy for a creative financing project:The basics:The seller wants to continue living in his house. 

And could start making a small amount of cashflow and start gaining appreciation with an LTR.Or do we continue to save up and get a better property in a good location with the amenities we would like to offer with an STR?

For me if someone has a negative review I typically consider something else, if its positive then I would continue to do my own research but do not really go off of others.

Unit 1- 3bd, 1 bath, Unit 2- 4bd, 2bath and ADU 2bd, 1 bath.I am eager to grow my portfolio and continue adding properties that I can add value to.

Currently, I live in Hawaii, house hacking my own property, and am looking to expand into out-of-state long-term rentals.My goals now are to master the art of wholesaling, continue raising private money, and build a strong portfolio of long-term rentals.

Inventories will continue to rise as life and job changes lead more owners to put their home up for sale.

You can still find the 1% rule here, and with all the revitalization and new construction I think things will appreciate well, especially in the next 3-5 years as there continues to be growth.

I would stack cash while looking for a value add opportunity on your current place, or stack cash and continue to analyze deals.

Sergio,In my market, I rehab continuously. 

I don't invest there (currently) but Columbia continually shows extremely strong data.
