Gives you the highest chance of winning the offer with the seller and avoid all cash.If you have any specific questions feel free to reach out or email me I enjoy helping and talking REI.Thank you for this!!!

I'm hoping to broaden my real estate literacy and savvy, as well as learn how to source, evaluate, and secure sponsors and deals that meet my financial goals.

It may not add much but as it happens…My new build home in Las Vegas (DR Horton build) specifically says I do not have any subsurface rights.

Checking out their track records in specific locations is key.

More specifically can you get utilities to the site?

Feel free to DM with any specific questions or just to connect.

The only way to answer that in general (whether house hacking in today's market is still a good option) or for a particular property, is to learn how to run the numbers and analyze a specific property to see whether it will be able to stand on its own as an investment when you move out someday.There are a lot of resources here on BP for doing that but I'd just say, make sure the assumptions you're putting into your spreadsheet or deal analyzer are realistic.Make sure the rents (especially for vacant units or pro-forma #s) are realistic by doing your own rent comps; make sure the mortgage rate is realistic by doing some research online and/or talking to some mortgage folks; make sure insurance #s are realistic by getting a couple of quotes for the # of units and zip code / area you're looking in; etc.I hope that helps, and good luck 😊

To scale, I’d focus on defining financial goals, targeting specific property types, diversifying, and building a solid network.

Borrowing cash from another source does create a lot of risk so make sure to stick to your numbers and make the deal happen where you minimize that risk.Another option perhaps not mentioned is a wrap-style deal subject to or seller financing.

Pro:- it’s trained to look for safety risks, expensive repairs- within minutes analyzes entire disclosure packet of hundreds of pages- works as another set of eyes that looks for things you should be watching out for, likewise of a companion - great to quickly learn of property conditions from the actual documents while on the go (given that you still follow your own due diligence process)- beta is freeCons:- still in beta- can’t share report directly unless copy and paste- only core documents (home inspection, pest, roof, tds, hazard, solar) are supported but not regional specific disclosures like hoa- estimates it provides aren’t accurate- not mobile friendly
