Boxabl acknowledges SEC inquiry in updated filing | Business Insider India its a double whammy start up and trying to sell in a very tough interest rate environment. along with inflation and cost of components to the point their 50k to 60k box probably cost them quite a bit more to produce than what they were going to sell it for. 

The $2000/month cash flow and the low 2.5% rate are tough to beat!

FSBO is tough any way you look at it, and even harder if you don't live there or live local.

If you’re not dead set on house hacking specifically, I’ve got a couple of ideas that might get you started without having to prove income.

@Andrew Postell Getting this through my skull does seem to be proving difficult :)  Would going the LLC route allow me to (in theory) purchase a property December 1 2017 and refinance at 75% of appraised value on, say, Feb 1 2018 after rehab and tenant placement? 

They had been able to do this for a prolonged amount of time since the economy was still proving to be relatively good based on unemployment figures.

So as long as you know you have 25 to 30% of the proposed deal in cash.. thats one.two do you have experience.. these are tough to get for first time borrower. ??

tough without having a local contact. 

This is the ONLY place where the terms PORTION and SPACE are not used in reference to the business or rental usage, but I'm thinking this ultimately has to do with depreciation recapture only and not overall capital gains.Worksheet 3 shows that "Business or Rental Use of Home" is splitting up "Business" and "Home" versions of your gain/loss worksheet, further proving the point. 

@Jake Oakes one of the tough things about owning properties long term is that you have to always be thinking several steps ahead of everyone else.
