I started in 2021 while being born and raised in San Francisco and found it really hard to find properties where the numbers and landlord laws actually made sense and I wasn't running a negative with only a hope and prayer that they would become cash flowing properties someday. 

Once you get a pre-approval, you'll know more about your buying power and if it makes sense to house hack. 

I was thinking option 3 made most sense and also not sell any of them since they cash flow and have been able to get new tenants fairly easily or have had long term tenants.

More commonly, 4-star properties have seen as much as 200- 250 basis points of expansion.This range of cap rates is generally found in the upper 7% to 9% territory, indicating that office property values for transactions over $10 million are down by roughly 35% from the all-time high in 2021, excluding medical and owner-user sales.Debt maturities pose challenges for 2024, with around $206 billion in office loans maturing this year and another $180 billion in 2025 and 2026 combined.

It's up to the appraiser how much consideration to give to the Income Approach to value versus the Sales Comparison Approach commonly used for single family homes.

I wouldn't want someone who only deals in big corporations to help me with a trust return for example.As is commonly said on these forums, pricing lessens if you are willing to work with a remote professional.

I almost have this house paid off already so it just made sense.

@Mai Nguyen, no legal issue, it probably does not make sense to do. 1.

I currently live in Riverside, CA however I am open to investing in markets and areas that make sense.

So our thoughts are we could go this route so we can build equity on something sooner instead of waiting for an NV property pops up.Hope that made sense.
