I'm looking for deal structure, pros and cons, tips, etc.My goal is to buy some of these new small affordable starter homes at a price that will cash flow, after foregoing my half of the equity split. 

That has been changing however with the rise of Airbnb and VRBO, and now more guests expect that all to be supplied for the duration of their stay, and not just have a starter supply.  

@Frank Patalano - Good conversation starter, so let me give you my vote!

For starters, it fails to specify which "valuable tax breaks" would be rescinded for raising rents according to the dictates of the free market instead of ignoring it in favor of an arbitrary limitation.

Or, for starters, google real estate securities attorney in Houston.

Well for starters… because the buyer always lid both fees so…

Well, for starters, I would love to say that you have made it to the right place.

For starters, are you sure that you would be able get a 5% rate as a first time home buyer? 

Hey Darrell, nobody is going to be able to answer this question for you for a lot of reasons.We don't know the rate and terms on your HELOC, for starters.

I am considering buying a starter home for my family (around $300k), living in it for a year, and then renting it out while buying a larger home for our family, like a 5-bedroom in the high $400k to low $500k range.
