W 61.34 effectively stops investors from working directly with owner-occupied and/or primary residences who are in foreclosure or may go into foreclosure.

Tried Buildium, but it referred me to different platforms, it did not look very convenient.I would like to make application process/  lease signing/rent payment easy for applicants and for me.Zillow is on the way to build all the functionality, but they are not there yet. 

cost of loan on primary home would outweigh potential income on investment property over 30 year life of loan. trying to figure out way that makes sense!

We plan to rent out our now primary residence and live and fix up this other home.Is it a bad idea to shop for refinance and pick the best deal or will most be equal. 

I work a lot with @John Warren who is part of 2nd City and the whole team is very knowledgeable and investor friendly...that is their primary focus.

Appreciation would be nice but cash flow is the primary goal.

If you buy it as a primary residence, they will make you sign a statement that you intend to occupy the property as your primary residence.

@Jason Ma I'm not sure this answers your question but I would recommend looking at the growth of the university.I invest almost exclusively in student rentals in Columbia, SC and the University of South Carolina is the primary driver of activity in the downtown market.

My question is by doing this and making my primary residence one of the units am I required to pay 20% or 5% down?
