House hacking is essentially the cheat code to get started into real estate investing.Generally done by utilizing FHA loans and 2-4 unit properties.Basically, buy a primary residence, live in it or one of the units for 12 months, move out buy again and do it all over again.Each time you can utilize fha as long as you refi the former before you use it again.Great way to buy a lot of properties with low entry cost!

Sounds like you're aiming to make some type of algorithm or software that tries to eliminate the need of competent real estate people utilizing their experience in markets they are very familiar with..........Didn't Zillow lose about $500 Million flipping houses using this exact type of model? 

I could've lent the money out or invested in notes, but I'm more interested right now in asset accumulation.I ended up simply rolling my SDIRA into my current 401k and taking a loan against that, thereby being able to utilize almost 100% of those funds (not quite at $100k in the 401k, but close) and purchase a duplex with a conventional 30 year loan.If I had $150k or more in my SDIRA I would have looked at other options, but with only $50k I found the path I chose to make the most sense.

I’d like to build a team and have a property management company involved that way I can utilize my time and efforts on other things besides maintenance. 

-Taxes-Home insurance-Mortgage Insurance -Maintenance/Repairs-Capex-Vacancy-Property Management (many include this even if you don't plan on initially offloading to PM)-Utilities Let's say all in expenses are $2,000 per month for easy math purposes. 

We want people to have confidence in the materials they want to utilize.

But you can get pretty creative with these entities to implement additional layers of protection by utilizing additional tools - and in my opinion real estate investors under-utilize trusts.

I am also trying to utilize the first-time home buyer down payment assistance program, but the site says they don't allow investment opportunities.

They put a property up on the market, put the taxes, insurance, and utilities on there, subtract an estimate for the mortgage and then say this property is a "cash cow!"

We try to find prospects that also have separate utilities such as electrical and less commonly separate water/gas.
