Hello & thank you in advance for your expertise & input. BiggerPockets is an amazing platform and inspired me further to dive into long-term rental idea. This property is a townhouse and has no mortgage. Howev...

I think the inventory of single family homes is huge in Memphis.

About 1.5 years ago, I purchased (conventional loan) and have been living in a 3x3.5 townhouse with a family member (brother) in a first attempt to start building equity through a house hack/BRRR strategy. 

I'm looking for multi-family (ideally a fourplex) in Fresno, CA around $350K.

hello every one 😎  am new for this  but i listen real-estate rookie so i need some help here so i bought a single family house in 2019 in Massachusetts and now i want to buy a 4 family so around Boston   to buy a four family house is between 900.000-1.1m and i wanted to do a house hacking so i got 2 options to do take a HELOC for a 3.5 down payments and show for the Leander i have at lest 3 month reserve or pay 20% down at this point i don't know what to do   

Having supported several investor acquisitions of small balance multi family recently and originating mortgages for the better part of two decades here are some quick pointers and considerations for investors: - Residential loans are considered multi family properties of 1-4 units.

Is this for a single family home or multi-family property?  

Many portfolio lenders offer 30 year terms for multiple family.  

Thankfully I have friends and family that have done well, so I think I can pull out a sizeable fund $500K+) without going the syndication route, but I appreciate the comment.
