I work in GA.  

I have income from investments, income form 2 business but not much in w2 income. 

For BRRRR type deals you want to work in reverse.

I am leaning toward a house hack in a duplex and trying to figure out to do this.

Purchase price: $150,000Rehab/ Holding Costs: $182,000ARV: $353,000Capital left in deal: $49,600Cash Flow: $1,300/ month What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Also, I’m in Texas. 

You'll want to focus on securing a favorable financing deal at the refinance stage—ideally, you want to pull out as much of your initial investment as possible while keeping monthly payments manageable.A big consideration is understanding your after-repair value (ARV) and ensuring the rehab costs add value in proportion to that.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

I don't know the laws in Australia, but in the states, you can usually get a low down payment loan if you will live in the place and you can do this up to a 4 unit and rent out the rest.

For instance, you will be living next to others in addition to being their landlord.
