I think many of the homes you see for sale are just investors that are trying to realize the equity growth in their properties.

A close friend of the family ,who was married, and had a house together got divorced and in between that time, she did a QC and removed her name from the deed. The ex husband is now deceased, no will, but there are he...

Has anyone ever used this loan and know if there is PMI?Also if you have any more info on it thats not well known if you could please let me know thank you

There are more buyers for SF homes, but Multifamily properties typically cash flow better as you mentioned. 

I'm still in the process of growing my portfolio, but have heard others 1031 all their smaller properties into a larger building and have a property management company manage, OR, set up a seller financing deal with another buyer that gives you the cash flow you desire. 

Obviously, you should work with a good agent, lender, and home inspector to assist with each phase to ensure you are getting the best deal.

You will get some of these as well (This inquiry was for one of my 1500 SF 2 Bed + home office units)..... but by no means does this investment strategy warrant paying for a course.

If you buy junkers and fix them up, you can make much larger returns. 

Competition with owner-occupants and the age of the homes (70-120+) will squeeze your margins and expose you to a fair amount of risk.

There are a lot of things that can come up on a flip so easing your way into things and working your way up to larger rehab budgets, etc is recommend.
