I've done the spreadsheets for a decade and then hired someone to outsource books entirely, I think at 50 to 100 units it makes sense to buy software.

I was thinking about buying the home but not sure on the best strategy. 1.

I’m trying to buy a house in Phoenix using a second home loan, putting 10% down.I'm trying to understand why anyone would choose the 2/1 buydown if you end up paying the same amount of money, whether you select the 2/1 buydown option or not.

Quote from @Jaesung Jun: @Jaesung JunYou don't provide nearly enough information for anyone to realistically offer valid suggestions to you.House hacking involves buying a multi-family house.  

My question is, how does the process then become for buying properties in your state LLCs?

Go to your local REIA and see if there are any subject matter experts in your area that teach classes or give presentations.Even when the statewide statutes are the same, they often get implemented in different ways locally, so the national courses tend to be just junk.If you are determined to spend money on a course see if you can buy off ebay or alibris or FB marketplace.Lots of misinformation on tax lien/deed investing.

Think long term, delay gratification, and buy the property you want to own the most 10 years from now.

I recently purchased my first investment property, a duplex, and am eventually planning on buying more when the time is right.

In it’s most basic definition Buy - Purchase a propertyRehab - Value-add with renovations and rehab things that need to be fixedRent - Find tenants to pay your mortgage (and maybe some cash flow)Refinance - Once the property’s value appreciates from rehab and reappraises for more than you purchased it for plus renos, you can use that gained equity to do a cash out refi.

I'm not saying that I favor this over buy and hold rental properties, but this seems to be a great solution for reinvesting an old self directed IRA that I have.
