When investing in real estate, having multiple exit strategies is key.For a single investment property, make sure the numbers work for both scenarios: 1️) If you decide to sell the home, the deal should produce a solid return. 2️) If you need to rent it out, the rental income should cover expenses and provide a profit.Flexibility is what saves you when things don’t turn out as planned.

or in the 700's because most people think they have perfect credit.You also have to know occupancy type like primary, vacation, investment, how many units, LTV/CLTV, Term, Fixed or Variable, Prepay or No prepay, Loan size etc.

We still owe roughly $900K on a 3% mortgage.We’re planning to retire abroad and are weighing two options:1.Sell the home – I already have a buyer lined up, so this would be a straightforward exit.2.Rent it out long-term (furnished) – While I don’t think the rent will fully cover the mortgage, it might come close.

Depending on market, I would plan to invest 100k in a single family home, find a good property manager, realtor, attorney in compelling market and just start. 

Root intrusion is rare with plastic pipe because that means a crack that's going to admit soil as well and eventually bust completely, so if you have roots in PVC you might as well plan to excavate.

Putting a long term tenant in a property here that you are BRRRRing won't cash flow unless you plan on leaving a good amount in the deal to do so, but that defeats the purpose of the BRRRR. 

I love where you mind is at and how organized your post/plan is.

Quote from @Alex Ng: I plan to purchase a property with an executory contract.

Planning to start a complete home remodel (interior/exterior) on a home (currently 837 sq ft), kitchen and bathroom bump out, and add an additional bathroom. 

@Stuart Udis plan A was to reposition as small office and keep it that way.
