I'm looking at MFH $450k and up in the Ohio markets (Dayton, Cleveland and Columbus).Cash:- Higher CoC returns- No risk to being having negative cash flow with a loan (excluding capex)- Buying/negotiating power with speed of transaction - No interest payments- No risk of foreclosureFinanced:- Possible exponential equity growth - Growth of initial investment is leveraged ~4x and most likely beat inflation in a decent area- Mortgage interest tax deductions - Better financial efficiency from more doors- Better diversification across more properties Are there other considerations I'm missing? 

House hacking and the BRRRR method are great for stretching capital efficiently.

To get started, you’ll need a good understanding of assigning contracts (check your state’s laws), a solid buyer’s list, and marketing tools to connect with motivated sellers.

End up with all cash and little to no tax.Your wealth snowball ends up a lot larger 10 years down the road when you make and keep your money in a more tax efficient way.

The local permit office is also known for its efficiency and helpfulness.3.

Tenant is pretty motivated to pay on time, or the city won't allow them to be there either.

Hi @Rene Hosman -In a nutshell, I find motivated sellers and tenants with damaged credit (or ones without a large enough down payment) and work to put the tenants in the seller's house with an option to buy.

While this is less tax efficient, it would be less work / less stress.

That really is the only way to have an efficient professional partnership - total open communication whether the conversation is pleasant or sour. 

No one will ever be as motivated to get results out of it than you are!
