I own a 28 unit SRO rooming house.

Build a good rapport with your Housing Authority.If you learn the ropes, SECT 8 can be a good alternative. 

I know this is too late I do my own inspections #1 on my list is a run a camera  down the house sewer line to the main .

I eventually want to get into building 5-10 houses a year, building myself up to the somewhat more recession proof market (Im thinking $650k+ builds, I also really enjoy lakefront.)

What is the retail value of the house you would sell?  

First time posting here.Dad died a couple years ago and I inherited a house.

Think of the house as a retirement fund.

In addition, I been doing this long enough that something new doesn't shock me or surprise me.I bought a house where the owner went to a nursing home 15 years prior. 

Since my strategy would definitely involve house hacking, I was thinking about house hacking with a mixed-use property.It could be interesting to evaluate as a strategy, but only if I can access financing with a low downpayment.How would that work from a financing standpoint?

Also if the owner does give me the bank that holds the mortgage should I call the bank to see what they would be willing to take to sell the house?
