I actually went to a REI meetup yesterday, and I was able to find a lender to help me out.

Talk to a trusted lender (preferably local) about what loan options are available to you.You can absolutely find some solid SFRs or even multi families around, but the cash flow on many will be lower the first few years, unless you are willing to do some value add work or buy in distressed areas with less expectation for future appreciation or price stability.If the goal is to have value down the road to cash in for a pivot, don't forsake appreciation for maximum cash flow.
