Land   my target market for infill it has taken me 2 years to land a lot that will work.. put it into escrow last month..  900k spec house. 

I am planning to buy a Single Family home by the end of the year and intend on "house hacking" (roommates).

Back in 2008 when I was sued by a seller, yes a seller, for $2,000,000 for a house I bought in 2001 (let that sink in) he sold me the house in 2001 and sued me in 2008, I thought it was a joke.

It would be even better if you can get something that you can easily house-hack like a SFH w/ an efficiency attached to help out with the mortgage.

This is often a losing proposition for the seller, unfortunately.Granted - when a house in in disrepair and would be hard to market otherwise, it is a path forward for the seller.  

If I want to sell my house for 800,000 in California with the existing loan which is at 470,000, but there is a due on sale clause.

I recommend Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey and consider taking his class Financial Peace University. 

Prepare the house and take photos2.

Hey all,I'm looking into assuming the mortgage on my sisters house and am struggling to figure out how to finance the equity that I would have to come up with to make the deal work.
