This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return. 5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space. 6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.

There are about 65,000 investigations into this type of mortgage fraud per year, resulting in about 5,000 convictions with the average prison sentence being 18 months.

I'm a local real estate broker, investor, and manager (100+ rentals, mostly Airbnb/STR and multifamily).House hacking is a tried-and-true method and in Sacramento you can produce some meaningful income while enjoying the appreciation and tax benefits of owning real estate.

Along with a kiddy-pool sized litterbox in one corner of a room, cat urine and feces in the OTHER corner of the room on the carpet (newly installed by the seller when I bought), and a smell that made my eyes water walking in the front door.The lease has a clause for Tenant-Caused Damages resulting from tenant negligence.

Multifamily is considered residential since people reside in the structure. it's part of contractors license law, our testing is on it and violating can and will result in punitive actions.

If you are using it to buy a turnkey property which needs to produce cash flow to be considered a viable deal how does buying turnkey(Little to no cash flow) combined with HML(High interest only debt) make alot of sense financially? 

The world of real estate has changed.The result of the lawsuits is that a REALTOR® is now required to have an exclusive buyer's agreement before stepping into/onto any property on a potential buyer's behalf.

The best deals I find are usually the result of an agent’s lack of familiarity with the area or a very poor listing presentation.
