Here is how I have decided to move forward to close the loop.  

For more affordable properties—those priced under $400,000—the timeline is even shorter, with many homes receiving offers within two weeks of being listed.This fast-moving market poses a particular challenge for first-time buyers who may not be as familiar with the urgency required in competitive bidding situations.

Congrats on the move and welcome to BP!

Both tenants just moved out.I just got a bid to correct the foundation the right way by the most reputable company I could find (full underpinning, 60+ piers) ~$65k, plus costs of repairing drywall, paint, vacancy, and new flooring.

Good morning @Joshua MartinGreat thing about a VA mortgage is you can do an IRRRL even after you have moved out of the property!

I house hacked this 4-unit property start year of 2022, moved out in a triplex in 2023.

The chaos, the moving parts, the never-ending demands—it felt like herding cats on a caffeine rush.Then I discovered syndication—the ultimate strategy for scaling in real estate.

Great move Andy! 

We completely gutted and finished the basement including adding a kitchenette and 3/4 bath, moved out and are now renting both apartments.

I get that having a paid off property is very comforting, but to me it's not the best move if you're trying to grow. 20% down and 3% annual appreciation means you're making a 15% return on your downpayment.
