The asset class will be dependant on how much capital you have availabile and how much renovations you plan to perform. 2) Is there an income gap between going after 2 units as opposed to 4?

I have focused my research on house hacking due to the lower upfront capital requirements with an FHA loan.

-Creates a solid foundation for passive income, allowing you to reinvest future cash flow into other opportunities without as much financial risk.Cons:-Ties up a large amount of capital that could potentially be used to generate higher returns elsewhere (like another STR or other investments).

Here's the key components to calculate your tax liabilityAdjusted cost basis - Is the purchase price, plus capital improvements, minus depreciation.

Real estate is basically an income producing and or capital gain producing investment.  

Id be happy to break-even with the rental income if I get all of my invested capital back.

Even if I am to not be taking home the lion's share of initial deals, I'd like to still be building some capital for future dealings.

The infrastructure supplied by preREO including investment capital, legal support and loan servicing is also in place to make it as easy as possible for the local investor to capitalize on the real estate opportunities we are presenting.Thank you.

I can buy a 2-4 unit with 20% down vs conventional can only buy a 2-4 INVESTMENT property with 25% down 4. there are options where DSCR loans dont repot to personal credit, helps in not having to show a bunch of paperwork or not one person in a partnership has to carry the debt5. way less paperwork to close on this loan type vs a conventional loan. we care about the income of the property you're buying and it's ability to service the debt of the property whether we use long term rents income, lease income, or air dna/bnb income.6. easily buy in partnerships, add people to your operating agreement, its as easy as that so bring partners into a deal. helps with scaling and raising capital or getting partners involved7. gift funds allowed to close on these as well, and like I said earlier, there's only a 10day seasoning period of funds with some lenders so that means you can literally have a private money lender deposit money into your account 11 days before closing, and you can use those funds to close!

In a situation where you were doing an arbitrage (renting it from the owner, then yourself re-renting it to someone else) your costs to renovate/fix it up while you're using it would be able to be capitalized and depreciated by you once your rental was in service (available for rent to others).
