Here is my plan: - Purchase a distressed SFH using a conventional loan (5% down)- Live in that property for 6-12 months while rehabbing it- Cash our refinance - Purchase another SFH as my new primary residence and plan to live there for 3-5 years- Rent out the initial SFH and cashflow a reasonable amount - Continue to save money from working + build equity in the initial SFH- Leverage a 1031 exchange to sell the initial SFH for a distressed multi-family property (using my own savings to supplement the down payment)- BRRRR that multi-family property and keep repeating from there Here are my questions:1) Would I be better off forgoing the two SFHs altogether, and continuing to rent an apartment until I have enough money saved up to buy a multi-family property as my first investment?
