@Michael Goddard Not a bad strategy. 

I'm not an SME on immigration law, but I know that you can get burned pretty badly if you run afoul of OFAC and AML stuff. 

If you want better cash flow, 35805, 35810, 35816, and 35811 are likely the choices. 

Throwing good money after bad to delay a negative report.  

Personally, if the property is in a bad area, this will give you headaches no matter what.

I am invested in a small multi family in TX and the management was not able to fill the property and do repairs and the income has dwindled badly.

YUP anyone advocating this to the public is not doing the industry any favors to many bad apples and even if your the holier than though trainer etc etc.. the students are such that you cannot know who is going to be a bad apples and screw people.. having spent 40 years lending money to investors .. its the nicest ones up front that end up being bad apples.

I know there are bad Contrs out there)2) Also in my experience, the customer should not be involved in picking up materials, ever.

If you prefer a nicer home with future equity growth, White House might be the better choice.

Make sure the zoning, local building department/regulations, and neighborhood allow you to put a tiny house on your property and rent it out.If that is not possible, using that money for the next property makes sense.In general, I think increasing housing density will help provide more badly needed housing affordably.To Your Success!
