That was an unusual set of circumstances that was created in response to covid, so it would likely take extenuating circumstances for that to happen again. 

Is anyone an investor in the RE Gain Fund LLC upREIT, and how is that performing, and under what circumstances did you get into that REIT?

Quote from @Don Konipol: This is a story from my past that provides a perfect example as to why investing in tax liens at auction is so dangerous for any but the most experienced and knowledgable investorsGreat story....maybe not the exact same circumstances, but I see crazy stuff like this all the time. 

I believe there may be special exemptions around a job relocation or other extenuating circumstances.

I know there has been some other forum posts on this topic, but I was hoping to note my circumstances here. 

Yes, there are some circumstances that would allow you to assume it; relative, death of a spouse, etc.

To me that is requires major compliments, and the review I posted is not appropriate.They really are going above and beyond in this circumstance and its not fair to them to keep this post online just because I wasn't able to reach them and discuss this over the weekend right after new years.PLEASE reconsider taking the post down.

If it's not feasible due to circumstances I suppose I'll have to adjust my situation (find weekend job, move back to NJ with parents, move to a different state with, etc.)All responses are appreciated, and I am absolutely open to chatting on the phone by the way.My view on house hacking is it can be a great tool to buy a house you could not  otherwise afford, but it shouldn’t be a goal in it of itself if that makes sense and that’s not to discourage you from investing just there are alternatives such as the stock market. so I’d start by asking where you want to live, do you want to own a single family home or does it make more sense to rent in a more interesting neighborhood like Arlington, Alexandria, that’s gonna be a personal choice, Will your monthly payment actually be less than renting/how many people do you need to get in the house to afford that?

Real estate investing often demands reserves for unforeseen expenses.

Delays, unforeseen repairs, and underestimating budget up front are all much more dangerous occurrences once a gap lender is involved.
