They didn't actively advertiseour home on websites and we had low tenantresponse.

Most of my CFO clients that are in residential development are looking for IRRs (usually over a minimum 5-year period) in the high teens and the commercial developers are looking in the low to mid 20% range.

House hack another property with a low down payment loan and use the remainder or the proceeds to either renovate or purchase another investment property?  

Even though there is low inventory, interest rates are high, and many properties don't cash flow, look harder there are always deals, you just need to find/make them.

You’re in a great position with a property that’s appreciated significantly, a low-interest mortgage, and clear goals to boost cash flow and transition into full-time investing.

It certainly seems like it would have really low "yes" responses, but it only takes one.

If the other two parties want to flip a house maybe they can do just that as partners and then sell you the house which you can buy with a primary home loan with low down payment.

Many would suggest against RE investing using retirement money but if you go into low risk opportunities it can be a powerful diversification method.

@Chris Mahoo many new investors don't take the time to properly understand RE investing.1) Many are using approaches from 2010-2018 when Class A property prices were so low from the Great RE Crash that an investor could cashflow and get pretty easy Class A tenants to manage.2) If you look at what investors were doing before 2008-2010, most were buying Class B & C rentals.To make it worth while, an investor either needs to Fix & Flip or invest & hold rentals for 10+ years.- Over a 10 year period cashflow will increase as rents increase (rents typically rise faster than property taxes, insurance, etc.)- The property should be appreciating, if purchased in a good location, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- Rents will be paying the mortgage off, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- If you hold a rental until death, you can pass it on with a stepped-up cost basis, limiting captial gains if then sold (limited by inheritance tax limitations).Too many newbies on this site trying to replace their day job income via "passive" real estate investing w/o digging deep enough to understand how it really works.
