Hey Noey,The way I see it would either be a bridge (depending on how low) which wouldn't necessarily satisfy the 30 year stuff or getting creative on a 30 year.You could bring on a person onto an LLC to act as a credit partner and to find a lender that would utilize their score for pricing.

As for who can help you transfer the property, it depends on the state.

Depends! 

It depends on the project and the architect. 

For instance, it may look like paying the $700 difference of renting your current property plus whatever your portion of the house hack would be (hopefully a significant amount less) and being similar to what you pay now or maybe a bit less depending on what you get for the house hack.

You are right you can't depend on appreciation.

I think it depends on what you want and how much money you have (and can borrow). 

It depends on the structure but I agree with you.

Once you've built up some reserves or feel like you're in a good spot, you could switch gears to MTR, especially since you're so close to a hospital.And later on, you might even mix it up between MTR and short-term rentals (STR), depending on demand.

I'm on Lane Kawaoka's e-mail list and I always think about striking out for something, but wondering if its worth it or if it can turn into a house of cards...It depends on the opportunity, the syndicator, the total amount of money involved, the amount you want to invest, how long you want to invest it for, the location of the apartment complex, the number of units involved, what your goals are.
