Currently shopping around for a convention loan for first home to house hack.

A lot of borrowers shop lenders for days to find the "lowest rates" just to find out 3 weeks later that the lender cannot perform on their promise.

Get a strong shop vac with bristle brush and carefully clean off the condensing unit. 

2-if you started to self-manage in January 2025 and managed for the remainder of the year would you not satisfy the 100 hr rule and participate more than any others?

So they'll help you pick the finishes and hand you a shopping list and then you do the rest DIY.

Plus stick with our lenders and don’t shop rates.  

My father studied to become a plumber and my mother worked in a dry cleaning shop.

It's like having 20 cars in a garage, all in good shape with maintenance records and all, and calling a local dealer's shop asking for a trade-in value on one of them, while I can comfortably put it on cars.com and sell it to highest bidder or take it off the market if I can't get the top retail dollar on it.

Direct mail is the bread and butter for majority of wholesaling shops.  

Additionally if you can live in one unit for a year, then you can get the best of both worlds, better financing and a larger than a single family home. 2-4 is a great place to start, shop around for pricing and see what is available.
