What phrase did you use to search?

@Kyle Jiron Just curious on your message above for action plan / investing plan ,  your phrasing made that sound like more of a solid thing or were you just referring to generalities ?

So, the way you phrased the title of this post is a little odd. 

All too often you see the phrase ‘below market rents’ or some such thing, and it may be just that simple; but usually not.

I like many real estate investors am looking to have “multiple doors” as the phrase goes.

But I have close to nothing to offer as collateral, and no liquidity for a down payment.I would search for an answer to this question if I could think of the right way to phrase it in a search string, it's probably a stupid question, but here goes:Would it be possible to offer something MORE secure, thus making lending to me less risky, than merely allowing them to become the 1st position lien holder?

But based on the city records, the plot is zoned to allow it already (obviously would triple check that with someone in the zoning office before converting anything), the zoning regulations explicitly specify that plots with that zoning can do multi-family without any special allowances (I believe "of right" was the phrase used).If it is already zoned to allow either, is it still possible for the city to say, "Hey, I know we said you didn't have to ask for special permission to do multi-family here, but we really would rather you keep it as a single unit."?

We just had our own personal door code and it makes us feel a lot safer with guests in the house.One of the best things we did when screening guests is we would send them a "welcome message" which reinterated rules such as-Don't park in the driveway-Take your shoes off at the door-etc.and hidden (smack dab in the middle) was the "secret code phrase" that they had to reply with to confirm they actually read the welcome message.

We all heard the phrase “cash is king”, but to what extent?

A wise property owner once said, "Tenant problems are always temporary" - that phrase sticks with me when dealing with these issues.Either way, best of luck on your new purchase.
