It sometimes isn't as smooth once you are married or have kids if you dont want to have a shared space with family around. 

I'm on my 3rd one right now (41, married, and 2 kids  - just trying to remove that excuse). 

A married couple in their 70s that have previously owned homes for 40+ years and are now retired with no debt, no kids, and 50 years experiene as adults should not be looked at the same as a boyfriend/girlfriend in their early 20s that have never owned a home or rented together before, still paying student loans, living paycheck to paycheck, and financing that 2018 Dodge Charger in the driveway.

Let's say 3 young single guys want to buy investment triplex.  5 years later your credit is all tied up in that triplex so when one of your partners gets married and has kids and his wife wants to buy a house for the family, they can't do it, because his name is on that investment mortgage. 

There are limits to how many Fannie Mae (personal) loans you can have, which is 10 per person… so if you are married my first suggestion is to buy your properties in one person’s name to maximize  how many loans you can have.  

When I move out in Sept, get married, and fill my current room, I'll basically be breaking even after expenses and maintenance.

Marry the house, date the rate!

If you are married to your partner (spouse) it’s a little different, but business partnerships can be more challenging - especially when things aren’t going well.  

The best way to be unbiased is to not be married to anyone.There are more current Norada posts here on BP.
