For example, carrying an owner's allowance to replace some percentage (or all) of the sub floor or sub roof when doing a replacement, because you just never know what the condition will actually be until you unveil it.

@Dominick HayesThere are multiple ways to house hack but it essentially boils down to living somewhere (that you own) and having someone else pay for most or all of the expenses associated with the property (sometimes they pay above and you make extra cash flow).My personal example of what i did before i even knew what it was called.

This being said, non-recourse loans are usually provided to individuals/companies that have one, a combination, or all of the following:1.

How hard you should push depends on if you can afford a vacancy in one or all of your units right now. 

You can pay any or all of the borrowed amount back any time and then borrow it all again, just like a credit card.  

So you may not be entitled to some or all of the matched portion if you were to drain the account.

I can then refi most or all of my money back out.

You have several strategies when looking at a primary residence as a long term investment:1) Convert some or all of the property to short term rental (maybe even while you're living there)2) Move out and make the property a long term rental (the first of your portfolio!)

No one is saying don't invest or all Bros are stupid, people are missing the obvious sarcasm built in because it touches a little too close to home, it's just that Bros need to chill before overspending on the advice of a couple Bros on the internet who want to sell them a course on how not to be broke.

Currently rents for $4300 but plan is to BRRR and turn some or all into AirBNB as it is located right next to a major hospital.
