Being new I would suggest started with existing builds but building small multifamily in a small town with a rental shortage could be a smart move (someone's gotta do it).

I'll be honest with you, in my experience, I have never seen a Investor care typically about the existing financing, or what was owed on the property.

Wishing everyone a happy and peaceful holiday season!

Interesting about the wind-down structure, I'll look into that more. some existing HMLs that don't have cooperating banks right now and probably would be glad to have it.  

I recently looked at an existing STR, but either the seller did not track the expenses or they did not want to provide them. 

Just like in Southern Italy, where houses are sold for as little as one euro, similar initiatives exist in Spain to attract people to repopulate villages and revitalize these areas." the one part I'd disagree with is "many".So why was I shocked then?

Meaning the buyer cannot take over the seller's existing mortgage.

This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return. 5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space. 6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.

Can you give the forum a few numbers on your existing properties, including estimated values, current loan balances, current rent on the duplex and expected rent on the SFH?

My name is Jaedon Carlisle.I am a new investor looking for 4-plexes and small commerical units.I currently reside in Redding as well and I would be very interested in meetups or any existing groups.As mentioned above, I have noticed very little inventory and the inventory that exists seems to be very expesnive relative to what I believe constitutes a good deal (at least in my inexperienced view).I am 26 and looking to make this my career.
