Quote from @Matt Schreiber: I know this is a common question but wanted to hear specifically from investors or realtors that are seeing MLS cash flow for 2-4 unit properties.

People interested in this type arrangement probably don’t have access to $150,0003.

Is it common to purchase a home with other debt?

Or is this type of deal that you savvy investors out there would scrap and try to be more aggressive?

.🚨 Common issues I see:❌ Not properly tracking repairs vs. capital improvements❌ Missing out on cost segregation & depreciation write-offs❌ Scrambling at tax time instead of planning proactivelyI’d love to hear from the group—what’s been your biggest tax headache as an investor?

That said, I've been seeing the TIC (tenants in common) becoming a popular alternative to converting to condos. may want to look into that as well. none of this is intended to discourage you from moving forward, just some food for thought. 

It seems like a common challenge, and any advice you can provide would be invaluable.Thank you in advance for your help!

A default by one co-owner results in a foreclosure on only the defaulting owner’s share, and does not affect the other co-owners.- Both Sterling and Bank of Marin offer financing to TIC developers for acquisition and renovation of buildings that will then be converted and sold as tenancy in common.

in a vast interview process with many steps before allowing someone to move in. a new roomie is an everyone-decision, not a landlord-only decision; if you're expecting people to co-exist in a space together (for longer than just a few months), you have to make sure they all have some things in common, or at minimum have the right expectations in terms of cleanliness and routine habits.someone working the night shift and someone else having a 5am rise-time, or someone who works from home in a call-center job is not going to jive well for example. and someone who doesnt handle conflict well is not going to jive with someone who is brutally honest and up front about issues. happy to go into more deets on how we do things if it will help. this can certainly be lucrative in terms of cash flow, but there are huge mud puddles i have stepped in over the years which i have had to learn to navigate.
