@Kyle Carter, The strategy you're looking at would be what is called a "consolidation exchange". followed by a conversion to your primary residence. 

Personally, I do not like any strategy or approach that aims to benefit from the misfortune of others.

Love the strategy of doing the work that so few others are willing to do.

I work with out of state investors and would love to connect and discuss strategies.

All strategies can be lucrative and all can be costly. 

Heloc’s are best utilized with a short term strategy, ie flx and flip, to BRRRR, etc.

I am trying to calculate my returns over a 10-year period using the rent-by-room strategy, which results in significantly more cash flow than traditional rentals.

These experiences shape my growth-mindset and value-first orientation, ensuring I bring a unique perspective to every deal.Personal Insight:As a father of six, I understands the importance of balancing family values with sound investment strategies.

@Mark Ainley sent out an email in regards to these fraudulent tenant apps recently and they also have some great strategies they use to prevent it. 

This seems like a no-brainer to me and fits well into a vertical integration strategy (I'm also thinking about managing other people's rentals as even more vertical integration (aka side money).
