In fact, one of my clients last year closed on a house hack near Keystone and turned a 5 bedroom single family home into a 6 bedroom house, and he is living in one room and renting out the 5 other rooms individually between $1,300-$1,400 per month per room because of the lack of affordable housing options up there. 

I learned in sports that a massive ego means that you are selfish and hurt the team as a whole even if you individually shine. 

Population growth creates increased demand for housing, pushing rents higher.Rapid and Sustained Appreciation: In cities with abundant, low-cost land, new construction is often preferred over existing properties, limiting appreciation potential.

The question is mostly a personal financial planning question and it depends on your preference and what balance of risk and access you'd like and would be comfortable with.

Every situation is unique although I prefer to self manage.

I personally spend about 50K a year in masterminds and always get my money back just through network of individuals you get access to.

Most institutional DSCR lenders prefer one lease per property/unit, however, I've seen programs allowing rent by room strategies.

It looks like this particular investor preferred the low level price point and the risks that come along with it even though he was buying from a company who could offer him both types of investments on the complete opposite side of the risk spectrum.

I think some BD/RIA will discount that fee for the individual investor (like me).

Ps — I think I prefer SFH value add vs Multifamily house hack.
