I'm replacing a boiler for a single-family home, 1400 sq.ft.

You have to have exit values of single family homes high enough where build cost can work.

Heck, you should mortgage your home to the hilt, and borrow every single dollar you can at 6-7% and crush it on the arbitrage.

I have my eye on a large single-family residence in Bethlehem, PA, but I have yet to acquire financing.

Once you take over a property as an owner occupant, if it is a single family or condo you can live in it for 1 year and that automatically exempts your unit from rent control.

You can get solid cash-flowing single families in the 90-120k price range and duplexes in the 130-180k price range.

It’s flexible—you can invest in rentals, commercial properties, or syndications—but managing it requires careful attention to avoid prohibited transactions.In comparison, a SEP IRA offers tax-deferred growth, which might be better if you expect a lower tax rate in retirement, but it doesn’t avoid UDFI tax on leveraged properties or allow borrowing.Before investing, check if SDIRA Wealth aligns with your goals and review their track record.

We are looking for low maintenance (so primarily new construction or >2000 and well maintained/rennovated) single family homes.

I've underwritten hundreds of deals, submitted tens of LOIs and not had a single one accepted- The BRRRRs I did do weren't true BRRRRs because of low appraisals, or not accounting for all costs properly and I ended up leaving around $10k for each one in the deal.
