However as you correctly point out this is far more risky and or its risk capital compared to buying a income property.. but the reward can be strati-spherically higher .. not just a little bit but it can be life changing profits on some of these deals.

If you’re patient, saving up for another year is the least risky approach and gives you time to research the right deal.

My property tax increases have been 17% for both homes (no Proposition 13 like in CA with our max of 2% increase).
