What is the zoning, what could be built there & would that project be worth the cost of demo of the home if you sold as land.

I’ve helped managed a few short term rentals that have been filled with military families waiting for housing to open up or waiting to close on their home purchases.

Either the rates improve and it can cash flow with a long term mortgage or I can sell it when the market improves (I feel like both will happen at the same time). 

Most people have an incomplete understanding of their own home market and only see/understand a part of it.

>he's likely accumulated a good amount of equity and is benefiting from debt paydown and tax advantages (with potential appreciation and improved future cash flow once the properties are stabilized being nice-to-haves if they happen). equity pay down starts at 0.15% per month, ~2% annual.

I am looking to start with flipping homes and growing from there.

. -  After purchasing a home for what I feel was to much I am trying to determine the best route.

I've found a niche in real estate investing where I purchase a single family home with a large lot and split the parcel into two and sell the lot and either keep the home as a rental or sell it as well.

Is 43% that insane if they 1) got the 16 homes for 400k when It was 600k ask from an senior that didn’t want to deal with them anymore and 2) and the apt appraised 200k over 3) 6 air bnbs bring higher return coupled with the 18plex

It sounds like you've been on an exciting journey already, especially with converting your primary home into a rental.
