Quote from @Jamie Banks: @Jordan Alexander I'm taking a creative financing course now and I'm learning that a lot of investors pay the mortgage that they acquired after the sub2 deal closed from a servicing account. 

Acquire enough RE that it takes you or your spouse more than 750 hours a year and 1/2 of your time to manage.When you are a material participating RE pro all of your and your spouses’ RE activity becomes active, allowing you to offset RE losses against other active income.One pitfall of a RE Pro spouse if you are full-time W-2.

The good news is that these properties can indeed be purchased for various investment strategies, including rentals, BRRRR (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance Repeat), or fix-and-flip projects.Purchasing as a Rental or for BRRRR:You can acquire a Freddie Mac home to hold as a rental property or implement the BRRRR strategy.
