It could make sense to bring in an investment partner.Another option, since it sounds like it's a handful of smaller properties, is to get a group of people together and divide and conquer the units rather than having one master portfolio with LPs and GPs.Feel free to DM me if you want to discuss strategy; I'm happy to help.

There are multiple ways to master the concept of house hack.

For example, doing the kitchen,paint and floors in the 2 months before moving in and then moving to bathroom renovations or adding a master suite addition while living in the property.Depending on you jurisdiction and capital you can use the value add house hack to even add an adu to increase the density. 

With 30% down your options are thousands of lenders.Why is it unwarrantable- master policy not enough coverage; low occupancy rate; HOA reserves; cannot be rebuilt or repaired; pending lawsuit in the less than 10 year after built for construction defect; flood zone with no flood policy...?

Tenant James (fake name) is in the master.

We can always hedge our position in stock/stock index by placing order derivatives that would limit our downside.I am quite mastering this aspect and this is what makes me more convenience for index investing (not stock but index).In syndication we're literally on the mercy of GP (which hopefully a good guy) and the actual asset itself (hopefully they purchase the right asset without so many issues).

If the STR operator (master tenant) is really good at running STR properties, they can generate more revenue than the LL might have done on their own.What are some of the key lease provisions people are using? 

Whether utilities are individually metered or master-metered makes a big difference.

You could also try leaving 1 garage and making less massive master suite but check local code on shard wall with garage. 

Just wondering if anyone has experience with having ceiling fans that operation on a remote control (with a master wall switch) in any of their rentals.
