Leveraging MH Property Solutions's local market expertise, we secured the property for $268,750.

Also trash removal needs to be privately secured, as public carrier will only pick up along public roads. 

As we went back and forth, we saw that the terms the bank or loan gave us were not set in stone.

In TX we can collect up to a double security deposit which I do for some tenants.

Have you checked out using an FHA loan for a multifamily househack?

Also, I can't tell anything by just this post but there are investment property loans that don't require 25% down. 

I'm in a final round with a company but steady income has not been secured yet so if I could at least cash flow that would really help me stay afloat for the time being.Obviously I could market the unit as-is and potentially rent to someone but won't likely be able to rent to a section 8 tenant which I was hoping for down the line.I was considering starting off with 3-month leases with auto renew and I have been VERY clear with him that if he is unwilling to pay on time that I still am treating this as a business and am not afraid to evict him.

Happy to chat further if you have questions.https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/brrrr-loans-what-are-the-... 

I also hear that HML does not loan this type of contract.

 I am applying for a DSCR loan and am now a renter myself.
