Have you explained to the seller that you cannot accomplish your dreams of a real estate empire if they will not sell to you at 20% below market value? 

I'd like to take my home equity and move to either Kentucky or Tennesee ,and start my realestate empire, by using the house hack technique.

I have learned so much already.My grand scheme to build my empire is to start with flipping single family or small multi-family properties until I establish some working capital.

Yardi published a September Rent Survey for multis and Sacramento leads year-over-year rental growth with 11.1%, followed by the Inland Empire and Seattle (both at 9.0%).While rent growth keeps decreasing, multifamily fundamentals remain strong.

However, wouldn't be opposed to doing something in the inland empire or some of the less ridiculous markets.
