If you’re working with a community bank or a traditional lender, these issues may not be as relevant.

@Julie J.My recommendation would be to wait until you can afford a home with traditional financing.

They refused to accept my terms and said I would need to put down 30% versus the traditional 80/20 with conventional terms.

I don't have any apartments in the traditional/complex sense either, and I'm sure that turnover is higher in those.  

Unlike traditional bank loans, private lenders offer quicker approval, fewer requirements, and the ability to customize loan terms to fit the project.

I will get a lot of fun out of it, plus make money now and off their future efforts which I will not be involved with, other than as a Passive recipient.Cost- if you did traditional logging and sawmilling operations, you would need about $3,000,000 of equipment on the cheap to start out. 

Also, more people seem to be choosing trade schools over traditional colleges.

Your lender will have the exact details.If the current leases don't align with your timeline for moving in, another option is to explore a DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan or a traditional investment loan.

Many brokers are open to part-time agents, especially those focusing on investing rather than traditional sales.

I have had people work for me for years under this concept and with some very few minor disagreements it has worked out very well, the money saved allowed us to do 3x the work than if we had gone the traditional route.
