My name is Batyr, and I’m a real estate investor specializing in co-living (PadSplit) and multi-family properties using creative finance strategies.

We live right over the apartment.

Carlos, I am from Spokane and I house hacked the first 4 years I lived here.  

I agree with Andrew’s comments particularly because this is a home you personally lived in and know intimately.

Purchase price: $360,000 We bought this stacked duplex, lived in one unit for 2 years and moved on.

This fall we launched 2 more syndications for infill developments in Boise. a 30+ unit Live-work townhome project in West Boise that has never been developed on 1.3 acres of land and an 8 unit lot split on the Boise Bench with a house to flip on an acre. 

I'm from Newburyport and lived in Seaport for a while.

It is still not a desirable place to live. 

I live in SoCal so if I wanted strong cash flow I would likely have to look out of state.

Strategy 1: buy a duplex, live in one unit (for one year as a "primary residence) and rent out another unit as a short-term / mid-term rental on Airbnb.
