Depending on your method, I will use your 100k of cash to invest out of state, like Alabama, to buy two to three properties (leveraging the loan and cash flow) or purchase an Alabama house in all cash (higher cash flow).Keep on renting in the meantime.

My goal is to move out after a year and be able to cash flow once both sides are rented. 

@Devon Moore yikes, that is a bold move to not allow a free trial or testing on there part.

If they aren't month-to-month, you aren't getting them out, and even if they are, you will likely have to line their pockets with cash for keys to get them out.Who is in the third unit?

Loan programs that utilize AirDNA income projections to qualify can also be utilized for cash out refinances (if not currently operated as an AirBNB) although some lenders have a maximum cash in hand of $500k-$1M typically at a lower loan to Value of 65-75% for investment property vacation rentals. 

He is wanting to give preference to cash buyer and I can do that but just want to know how this type of deal goes, etc. 

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

I still have no clue what's happening at my project- I know people don't work for free so I'm sure it's going nowhere. 

We have several properties - both rented/cash-flowing and rehab needed @Cassandra Marshall

Hey @Alex Short, it’s definitely do-able to cash flow on a multi-family unit.
