Hey BP Family, I'd love your insight on this.I'm currently weighing two intriguing options: house-hacking a 4-plex or venturing into the realm of MTR with a single-family home or duplex, particularly for renting to travel nurses.

I too am looking at Detroit as an OOS option and would love to see your neighborhood info.

Still, I would like to get the option from a respected member of this thread.

Get the cost analysis and blue prints done and work it out with the construction loan committee and start the work draw phase.The other options which can be a little easier is buy a home that will pass an Inspection/appraisal and not be "Subject to" but does need a lot of TLC/renovations and do it yourself.

Long story short they brought dogs(against our house rules) the dogs damaged the furniture.

STR that do the best have a target audience based on the the surrounding options that improve the vacation experience.

You do have other options.

There are exceptions if the tenants damage the furniture, even thought it is your furniture.

So I have a non-primary house that is valued at $220k on Zillow (just a reference point), what options do I have to finance around 100k out of it to renovate the house?

Sharing an article I published here on BiggerPockets last year related to this topic on all about the financing options / qualifications / underwriting for STR income in case it helps you!
