diversification and cash flowSan Jose, CA has been very appreciation heavy... and i'm not opposed to keeping some property here, though the multi-family / commercial real estate has very low cap rates, and low growth from what i'm seeing.

I have built enough capital to feel comfortable investing heavily and am interested in either a flip, small multi family, or commercial.

If you're considering house hacking a multi family property, some lenders might be able to factor in potential rental income to help you qualify.

About 5 years ago one of the sellers we bought a multi family from told us about a company that has a lot of landlords like us and we coshare insurance coverage.

A 1031 exchange will allow you to sell your building and use the proceeds to invest in a small multi family and/or medium term rentals.

HiWhen we started out we bought a multi family property and lived in 1 unit.  

That is changing now with the new return to work mandates from the Federal government and Amazon HQ2 and the coming changes from the DC government to make the city more attractive to residents, but the effects of that are slow moving making now still a great time to opportunistically invest in a condo or small multi investment.

Airy closer to Germantown Ave, the more north the better (19119)Garden Court (19143), Cedar Park (19143), Walnut Hill (19139)B: New construction going on but mainly as multis, few SF build and sell, most action are in flips rehabs, no bars or restaurants yet.

I got a very lucrative multi-day booking this fall, and then tried to cancel just a couple of weeks later claiming I want except her service dog which wasn't true.

It would be helpful to me at this time, to have about $25K in working capital for work on one of my multi-family properties.
