Or they can be sold to investors.I think they are particularly attractive for new investors to buy as a house hack - you live in one and rent out 3, most, if not all, your expenses will be covered.Look at what it last sold for, has it appreciated?

We always do our deal analysis so at 65% we cover all expenses plus P/I so you should do well.   

The records show the house last sold in Sept, 24 for 382K and was listed in Oct 24 for 416K and reduced to 406K in November.

Last, you can do an unlimited amount of repairs to a home using a 203k renovation loan (up to the FHA loan limit), including knocking down the house and building a new home!

I haven't looked into it because I never plan on buying there but thats what he said was enacted in the last year. 

@Brett JurgensThe "2 out of the last 5-year rule" in real estate allows homeowners to exclude up to $250,000 ($500,000 for married couples) of capital gains from the sale of their primary residence if they lived in the home for at least two out of the five years before the sale.

Has cash flowed between $50k and $56k the last 3 years with upward trend.
