Lenders can have different loan options based on the property type and the amount of rehab (if any) required for the project. 

Every market will have a data center, not sure how this will deviate from the curve of market-based anticipation.

Based on my calculations, even with a low down payment, I can achieve positive cash flow (with aggressive enough house hacking).

Hi @Daniel Carrillo,Just based on conversation had at various conferences I've attended I think we will see some increased activity later this year.

Experiences will vary significantly based upon location.

I have seen loan qualifications based solely on passive investment income from rental properties, social security/disability payments, pension payments, etc. 

My original goal was to buy a rent-ready duplex and house hack, but based on my pre-approval and what I’ve seen, most multi-family properties in my range need renovations. 

If the numbers don't work for expanding the building, explore the potential based on the current space. 

I love the flexibility they offer for traveling professionals, military families, or folks in between moves.My main questions:Have you noticed increased demand for midterm rentals in this area, particularly from military personnel at nearby bases or healthcare workers at local hospitals?

Even with that, I think we will still be way ahead. 2 bed, 1 bath, 1200sq/ft, detached 1 car garagePurchase Price: $38,000Repairs: $20,000ARV: $96,000 (based off Zillow, but a local real estate agent thought that was pretty accurate)Mortgage: $430Insurance: $55Trash Included: $25Rent: $1,000We are now going through applications for our first tenant.
