I know that there are many ways to attain one's goals in real estate investing, new construction is just what we enjoy and feel we can be the most proficient at.We are relatively new to infill ourselves, but we are learning as much as we can as fast as we can.  

Putting 20% on a triplex after i build my house should be attainable, and my Debt to income will be very low.

I believe your analysis should really be based on what single families usually pay to rent similar-sized homes for, rather than what theoretical price might be attainable by sub-letting!

The goal of each of these 10M hits is to encourage great financial habits that assist in some way or other in helping folks attain early financial freedom.For real estate, my goal is to purchase a $500,000 - $700,000 property that will make for a great house-hack in a place that I will love living in the downtown area of Denver, CO.

The amount of documentation I had to provide to attain my primary residence was ridiculous.

How would you recommend attaining this goal?

My parents are getting older and they don't have retirement plans or assets so I'd like to start earning more income to attain financial independence both for myself and for them.

I'll find a way to get what ever is required to attain the loan if the deal is indeed the opportunity I've been looking for.

For my first investment I was wanting to get $200 cash flow after expenses but in this market nothing rents for enough to make that attainable.
