By the way, I have primarily wholesaled properties and acquired some rentals for long term investments. 

@Abdullahi Mohamed @Osman KhanYes, investment residential real estate. 15% down payment. you cannot do BRRR completely since shariah law doesn’t allow one to acquire a cash loan with interest, so cash outs are never an option.

Right now, I am anticipating 500+k cash soon and is trying to find the best place to put it to work before the interest rate goes down, i.e. acquire worthy assets and hold. 

I would be really curious to hear updates on what you’ve come up with for your ADU project as I do hope to acquire another SFH within the next year and add an ADU to the home.

Do the hours spent talking to an agent, contractor, lender to acquire the property count?

I am a first time real estate investor looking the following property : https://www.redfin.com/OR/Forest-Grove/2418-Cedar-Cir-97116/...its a pretty large duplex in Forest Grove OR,  the trick is though, its on a lot zoned for a 4 plex so I am lookinginto house hacking, converting into a triplex, then living in one unit while renting out the remaining two unitsThe left garage has been converted to living space, with a living room, half bath, a laundry room with a sink and some counters/cupboards and a bedroom, it is a part of what was an existing 3bd unitIf I were to acquire the asset, I would first attempt to convert that space into its own unit The line items as I see (be in mind, I am totally new to this) would be to >put up dry wall where the door to the rest of the house is,>add a shower to the half bathroom >install a water heater in the adjacent 3bd unit> install a kitchen in the laundry room, (stove , oven , sink, counter space)>add a shower to the half bath Assuming I can convert it to a 3plex, I could at-least cash flow on my investment after I leave My plan would be to put minimum down payment of 3.5% (FHA loan) that way I can have a decent amount of capital free to do the renovationsThe only concern is when I crunch the numbers to get my ROI, I have no idea how much its going to cost to convert the additional living space to a third unitAny experienced investors here know how I can estimate this before I try to make an offer?

I have a question a friend of mine that owns some property said it’s going to be harder for me to get a four unit next because I acquired a duplex first is this true ? 

Houston Wholesaler,I am actively looking into acquire more properties. 

I am working on a plans for a 4-unit retail development in Bourbonnais. I am wondering how people go about placing quality big name tenants like Starbucks for example. I have searched high and low for information on t...

We are stuck because my husband makes just enough to live, we've cut every possible expense and really want to acquire rentals but can't find the capital.
