Can SubTo be done morally, ethically, correctly?

Focus on high-demand rental areas (suburbs for multifamily, tourist/business hubs for STRs) and consider scaling with the BRRRR method to build passive income.

Also do the enemy method (dot com) to suss out your competition. 

Love the house-hack method!

@Anthony KolbuszBRRRR method is a fantastic strategy, especially with your trade experience.

My maintenance is little to nothing as we do the reno correctly.

@James Soto I think it's a great idea, I love the BRRRR method if the numbers don't work as a BRRRR you could still flip it to bring in some capital! 

The property had foundation work done just prior to the sale but continued having problems, even after I hired a second contractor to correct.

I'm seeking advise from people who may have been down this road before on whether we should seeking other financing methods to go LLC to LLC or quit claim the lot back to our personal names to satisfy the 1031 exchange rules. 

@Heath D Wallace Cats can damage your property if not maintained correctly, if your apartment has carpet then cat urine is can get soaked in it if the cat pees on your floor.
