This reduces your housing payment and helps you build equity. 

I may start with house hacking to build confidence, take advantage of owners financing (this will be my first home), and to build my network first. 

I have flipped new homes and townhomes but phased out raising a family and now am focused on utilizing my skills which are building, selling, expanding a circle of influence to focus my effort on the above.

We scraped the old house and we build new home, where the houses are selling close to the $1.8M What was the outcome?

Based on that number of units I would expect much higher figures - did you buy these buildings all/mostly cash?

Building a real estate portfolio might be attractive, but if you're crunched for time, perhaps you could do private lending in a SDIRA or get into syndications.

I was thinking that by giving a single builder rights to build on the land, I would get 1% of each contract price, something along those lines.
