They have a bigger single family home and a tiny home on the property, but there close proximity and shared driveway present functional problems that are undesirable for guests. 

I have also taken the relo rental option a few times as well, both as renter and as owner.

You profit share with them for the first 10 deals (at the higher levels) because they really are right there with you holding your hand, and as I mentioned, doing three way calls, etc. every step of the way.  

I financed this property using down payment funds from 403B and a local commercial bank. 15% down from personal funds. 85% down from community commercial bank. 3yr balloon, 20yr amortization, 7% interest rate.

Around this time I discovered Bigger Pockets and a bunch of real estate platforms online.

I often have new investors tout cash flow without considering all the cash offsets and, as such, what might seem like a great deal is really not so great.2. 

There are several 4 plex properties under 1m and a nice 3 plex, fully renovated for 900k.

So she took that extra space, added a wall and a hidden door and poof!

It’s a blessing (the reason you found real estate in the first place) and a curse (you probably get distracted easily on what asset class to focus on).

So far besides a few books and a burning desire I am a complete novice to this.
