Acquired a double lot for $112k after resolving title issues and paid $360k for construction, creating a 6-bed, 5-bath house designed for co-living or multi-gen use.

A nice 3 bed 1 bath around 1200 sq ft is easy to buy, cost very little to maintain, rents easy, and is easy to sell to another investor or a homeowner.

Two are 3 bed 2 bath, and one is 4 bed 2.5 bath.

I just purchased a SFR 3 bed-1 bath and I would love to talk to you about it.

I am looking at a 4 bed 2.5 bath property in Pfugerville, TX that I am planning to rent out as a co-living space (rent by the room on Padsplit).

many houses in the midwest, for example, are very old and need major rehabs.i personally think out of state investing is more difficult than advertised, and much more difficult in the current investing environment, with: prices high; interest rates high; tremendous demand for inventory, by both investors and retail buyers; and good PMs, contractors, etc. booked up.here's a really thoughtful thread with the experience of another CA investor and lots of different responses:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/12/topics/1215726-break...and here are some threads about how it can very easily go wrong:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1159104-overl...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/963/topics/1195280-expe...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1160450-run-i...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1137397-balti...finally, you also said you "don't have a lot of money to start with." 

Or find a property that is under-utilized or has below market rents.Otherwise, you could also do the OPPOSITE of the great advice from @Jonathan Greene and buy a property with multi-bed units or live in the larger unit and rent out the smaller unit - while getting a roommate(s).

This is the same process a retail store uses to determine what to stock.

Other than that, it plays no role and has no relevance to the mortgage acceleration scenario.I'm going to bed. 

I get calls weekly from assignors across the country who are surprised that I don't have any interest in their retail deals.
