Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

Hello everyone, I have a 2 family home that I rent and in the one unit a family friend lives there.They moved in with no security deposit and keep making up excuses after excuses it’s been 5 years now still no SD. 

Good Morning,I have lived in, rented out, and help clients buy single family house hacks in St.

Outside of real estate, I enjoy traveling, spending time with family, and boating.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

After chatting with the utility company they said since it single family it is most likely not electrically wired for that.

It tends to be a family tradition to do it versus a poverty issue.

Quote from @Drew Sygit: @Yanting Wang many investors are buying, "build to rent" properties.They are all being told that in buying a new construction property, they shouldn't have maintenance issues for 5-10 years, which will increase their cashflow/profit.Well, tenants have a way of breaking things, not taking care of problems and letting them become maintenance issues, and this is on top of the fact that most new construction properties require several warranty repairs by the builder in the first 12 months.As others have pointed out, you must live in the property for the first 12 months for an FHA mortgage or take your chances with committing mortgage fraud. do a new construction multifamily don't buy a single family for BTR the numbers are garbage. density is the only win for economies of scale, micro units as well. small, well designed multiple dwelling properties are superior. 

@Jonathan Lane your letter would not even be presented to my seller as we call them “love letters” and do not forward anything discussing family members or potential personal, not financial, reasons to choose yours over another offer.
