I am not really a fan of the program because we have a very nice situation in our current home.Putting 20% down for a conventional loan is a steep task financially so I do not think that is an option plus I have been told by many of my friends with multiple MF homes to never use your own money to get into one.Then there is always using the equity we have built up in this current MF home we live in to purchase the next - I am not sure how that works but have done some research on home equity loans and believe that would be another option.Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

The financial model does not work long-term. 

If you’re short on experience or financials, bringing in a sponsor with a strong balance sheet and track record can make all the difference.

However, after taking a deeper look at the financials, we realized the property would barely cash flow.

It's a big step but will surely move you forward in your journey for financial independence. 

My primary focus right now is Duplex/Triple & REI investments, with a goal of achieving financial freedom.

Thats the key, with out knowing all of this then its just a shot in the dark or having bits and pieces of info and trying to solve the financial freedom equation with out the full "picture."
