You also need to live there, so it cannot be an investment.Is this possible for conventional loans, and if so, how?

Additionally, I hold a real estate agent license in the state of Massachusetts. 

I am proud to have achieved Super host status on Airbnb for the past year and have received hundreds of positive reviews across various platforms and through word of mouth.Key highlights of my rental operation:Vetting Process: I ensure all clients are thoroughly vetted, maintaining a strict no-party policy to protect property integrity and community peace.Strong Relationships: I am respected by the Landlord Management Team, consistently ensuring both the clients and the management are satisfied.Operational Expertise: Leveraging my operational experience from my time in the United States Army, O&G Manager and as a seasoned operator in the Houston bar scene, I run a smooth and efficient rental operation.I am now looking to acquire additional properties in the Houston area to expand my rental portfolio.

I put about 60k down to avoid PMI, and it came with a duplex (I live on one side) and a single family netting me 2500/month with mortgage being $2,080.

VELOCITY OF MONEY is something that has taken me a long time to learn...closing jobs out (Even at additional cost) and getting to the next one is more important for us NOW after having some old projects suck the life out of us.The fact that the county is threatening to take away the general contractor's license honestly SOUNDS ABSURD!

Not only that ^^^^ but if you are converting 'Non Living space' into 'Living Space', you could face other problems down the road.

Thank you for responding, i have my house, but with everything getting so expensive taxes and insurance among other things i would like to ad an addition like a studio.

I lived there 7 months while updating, then moved out so it’s now a rental What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

If cost is a big factor which I completely understand during these times, then search around but know finding that real estate-friendly accountant that is in the $1,300 (depending on your situation) range and having a good relationship with them might be difficult to find.Lastly, ask her if additional services come with that price. 99% of the time the answer is no, but some firms offer free mid-year calls or check-ins for being a tax preparation client.If you're comfortable reaching out to remote firms contact anyone here in the forums.

Another reason to stay in Michigan for your first investment.So, what can you buy within an hour of where you live?
