Creating something unique and special takes more time and energy.  

I know you've been booked up till now but sometimes we have to refresh, just like refreshing your listing on the OTA's to boost searches.

Keep in mind your goals, time, energy, and the lifestyle you want to have or are willing to have. 

@Bubba McCantsWe have clients in the Reno Tahoe, NV area that are taking a bit of hit on the cash flow because of the above average appreciation growth boosted by tech jobs and people moving from CA.

@Angela FondeurI would focus all your savings and energy on saving up for a house hack.  

Not to mention it would be so much less of a headache and so much less time and energy invested on your behalf, plus much less exposure to risk, easier to manage etc. to just buy a single multifamily for $800k in a good location with strong underlying fundamentals. 

I appreciate the insight on the requirements for transfer, and the advice on where to focus our energy next. 

You can make money self managing in good areas though at 25 down after cosmetic updates to boost rents, I have a building I only visited twice.

And that extra payment is oh so sweet boosting your net income.

Thats why they have roam boost. where if you dont have the full equity amount, you can pay a higher interest rate and lower down payment to roam lenders.
