Not the situation I want when selling.So the risk is low demand in the face of high supply and a cookie-cutter condo.

Thank you for your recommendation and professional advice.Yes, I also thought 1-2 months is ludicrous.I highly recommended my friend change the contractor or get another quotes with other contractorsI don't know the "home restoration companies"

@Sheifta Anwar Highly unlikely….banks know they get the best price by getting on the market and most banks are just servicing for the actual loan holders…and they have policies to put it on the market.

Most have a high school education. 

Another investor's goal is income, so they save and save until they can buy one high-end door (say a vacation STR) and that makes $3,000/month cash flow.

Any who recommended the use of debt fund, floating-rate interest, and high leverage (over 75% of purchase price) should be avoided like the plague. 

My goal of becoming a broker is two fold:  1) Build a career with high earning potential   2) Use that income paired with the knowledge I would gain to invest. 

Of course, I would highly recommend staying up to date on the laws for when you do move out of the property and onto your next house hack.

This is even more true today given the high level of US interest rates.
