I’m aware that money is likely going to be spent but, assuming it doesn’t, then can you still make tax free cash flow simply off of the recurring deductions like interest, management, hoa, utilities, taxes, insurance and depreciation? 

It can be HOA liens, tax liens, utility liens, etc.The thing that most people don't know about courthouse steps buys is that the same buyers are always there and they all know each other.

Thanks so much for your help in advance Short answer is yes there are no income products and or stated income products you could utilize till you eventually start filing an acceptable form of income to qualify back for full documentation loans again (eventually).

Additionally, by incorporating flexibility into its use—potentially housing commercial tenants during repairs at another property—I enhanced the strategic utility of the investment within my broader portfolio.

The costs sound a little low to me if you are talking turn key including permits, site work, utilities, plans, surveys etc.

Most real estate property syndicates utilize 50% or more leverage.  

I'm hoping this program can still be utilized. 

I'm now looking to house hack in Dallas or the surrounding areas (likely Arlington) but am a bit stuck on how to run the numbers.When calculating cash flow on the my duplex in Indiana I took into account PITI, vacancy reserves, maintenance and repairs reserves and utilities to get down to my net cash flow amount.When running the same calculations using 5% down on the house hack, I find myself quite a bit in the negative.

@Brody VeilleuxTo maximize returns on multifamily housing, focus on mid-grade updates, amenities, curb appeal, utilities, exploring additional units, creating flexible spaces, and refinancing with a value-add record.

I want to put a home on it, it has utilities running to the property already.
