As a borrower shopping multiple lenders, your main concerns should be the following: 1.

My concern was that it was too far from the heart of San Antonio.

The contract with the wholesaler also expires on Monday the 27th, so I have my concerns about this just being a stall tactic to get out of the contract.

At this point, I'm not so concerned about achieving that exactly, but if my REI journey takes me there on my way to (or even after) financial freedom, then I'm all for it.There's still some work to do to prepare financially for "the first deal" and that moment legitimately appears to be about 2 years away. 

There are some concerns around taxes and insurance to be mindful of, but the job market in major Texas cities is unreal.

If you hire someone typically they are the ones providing this information, but if someone is paying you, then yes they need this information for tax purposes.BTW - I would say your SS# has been hacked so many times and is on the black market already this is why we monitor ours through other parties or just lock it down at experian and other agencies if you are concerned about it.

Most fail to consider what goes into owning and operating real estate once it’s purchased and solely concern themselves with how to buy the property.

Many business owners are deeply concerned with the future treatment of their employees, equipment, image, customers, etc.  

These items have me slightly concerned and weighs on my decision, making me want to "take the money and run".Question: Would you sell, abandoning a 3.125% interest rate, $1000/mo cashflow (which I believe would be roughly halved if a loan were taken for the capital improvements to the larger property), to lock in the equity gains tax-free made since 2020?

Thanks Sarah, I don’t see much house hacking going on in Essex or Dundalk in terms of listings on Zillow or FB so my concern would be finding professional adult roommates that want to house share in that area. i’ve been following a lot of the midterm rental groups in Facebook and the consensus is that contracts have decreased significantly and hospitals are using more local labor pools.
