I'm 26 y/o and looking to expand my real estate investments significantly over the next few years.I currently have a single family home (4 bed/3.5 bath) in San Diego, CA.

Similar homes in our area are 180k-200k starting w/o renovations and around 240k-280k with renovations.

I worked in apt leasing for 3 years.I'm Ubering on the side so I can cover the mortgage if I'm w/o a renter for a while.

Since you only plant o be there for a short time.   

:grin:It's about keeping up with the issues and I did that w/o going to deferred maintenance.

So, after calling around I was able to find a 3/1 ARM at 2.5% which keeps payments about $40 from the I/O payment at the higher rate.

@David O. message me directly and we can talk@Sandy Blair Ah!

Thank you all for contacting this is going to be greatI'm looking forward to meeting you all and getting some stuff goingI have a project I'm in the middle of now but soon to be finishedI still work my J O B but hoping to get into real estate full time by years endThank You Again- Bigger Pockets Community!!

I prefer small apartment complexes over SFH's because house with one tenant is either o% or 100% when starting out and you are not forced to pay retail for apartment complexes but you typically pay a discounted amount.Good luck to you!

My suggestion is to create and LLC, transfer them however you can get that  accomplished, and then get a blanket loan on al of them that aren't o/o.
