Quote from @Steven Gesis:   Brian, I read an article in Bloomberg the whole premise of the business plan for a particular operator was a "double pop" and a short-term fix and flip strategy all focused on high velocity  multiple refinance events, floating adjsutable rate and the hope and faith of continued rent growth coupled with low interest rates in multifamily -   I wonder how this is working out for them now.

Despite these, the successful sale at $323,000 highlighted the importance of strategic planning, effective project management, and strong partnerships in maximizing profitability in real estate investments with Partner Driven.

Make concrete plans on how to achieve those goals breaking them down into as many steps as necessary.

Remember real estate is generally a long term investment and plan accordingly.

Start with a marketing plan.

@Bruce Tieuhouse hacking is a great way to get started and I think your plan is great - but I would reset your expectations on the numbers:1. the goal of a house hack isn't to live for free. 

Our plan is to add a shower.

It currently is tenant occupied until October 2024 and after they move out I plan to use as a short term rental.

I plan to refinance when the rates go down. 

You want to develop a plan for how to handle that in advance.In our book, payment history & longevity play a “first factor” in how we respond.
