How big is the house?

People are not choosing the cheapest housing available.

To answer your question condos are better if they allow it but if you want to hop right in it with less risk I would go for a house or multi family deal.

Since you already have experience with both short-term and long-term rentals, house hacking a duplex could be a smart next move.

To set the stage, I'm owner of a short-term rental property in the Poconos in PA and we use a property management company for bookings, maintenance/cleaning, guest management, etc.This past weekend we had a guest booking but when the guests arrived Friday evening the house had no running water, though it had been running fine earlier in the day when the Property manager (PM) was at the house to give a final check and leave the welcome packet.

As a result, we had to push our deadlines with the seller.

I was playing with the idea of selling my condo, taking 300k of the equity to put a down payment towards a house listed at 660k.I'm assuming the reno will run $300/sqft and going in with the assumption that phase 1 will run 750k (figure the expansion of the house will have to wait) for the gut reno.I assume/hope (but definitely not banking on) that I will be able to refi in 2-3 years at a lower interest rate; if not for a lower rate.This will likely be a family home for the next 5-10 years at LEAST so investment value isn't quite at top of mind ATM.Questions:Even if it's not for lower interest rate, do you feel it's advisable to refi to remove the 203 loan in the future?

Besides ALE Solutions I did Express Corporate Housing and will be signing up for Furnished Finder.

Hello i bought a house for 75000$ and can get a loan on it for 155,000$  My question is hypothetically if i were to only get a 20,000 Loan From the 155,000$ loan and never pay it would they foreclose on my property and i would loose it for not paying the 20,000 Loan?
