I definitely want to have that long-term mindset and buy a property/house hack that focuses on appreciation, but can also generate some positive cash-flow after I move out.

Even before only every 5th deal or so would truly allow to recycle all cash and generate 25% equity. 

Then I sit down with a spreadsheet and analyze all parcels for an area and generate a list of target properties right from my computer.  

An argument can be made that you will generate a higher net worth there than say middle of nowhere Alabama.3.

Your 1.2-1.4m new multifamily may only generate 8k in rent tops.

The new generation ATM can do a lot more than dispersing cash.

I don't really need to know much else about someone - if they can't pass this test, why should I believe that they will be able to run a business that will generate cash?

Capital generation is always good with a flip, or maybe getting into a value add deal, leveraging hard money to  update the property, then re-fi and hold.

You are controlling significant assets with little money and using the revenue they generate to pay for them. 

So I would buy the home and rent it for a couple of days, and then show the payment receive if you end up not being ready to launch and generate other bookings before the application window opens and closes.I'll direct message you my phone number.
