The pricing for Real Estate is way out of whack due to no supply so everything is over priced right now and not sure if worth the house hack. 

This factoring includes the presence of competent contractors who can limit unforeseen surprises and costs.Myth 2: They're Too Risky to Invest InThere is risk in any investment; however, distressed properties are not inherently riskier than any other real estate investment.

But, that is just not how residential real estate works - that is how commercial real estate works.

Have run across this issue several times when getting referrals from other real estate investors.

@Jeremy DuganYou're looking at this deal the right way—structuring it so everyone wins—but the way you present it to the seller will determine whether you walk away with a great opportunity or gain negotiation experience with a conversation that goes nowhere.Here’s what I would do to own this negotiation:First, control the frame.

I've learned a lot over my time investing in small towns and have found some great opportunities but just like any other niche market you better learn what you're dealing with or you'll get burnt.

Unfortunately, from a STR prospective it seems like there is less opportunity based on supply/demand and current home prices in the immediate area.

Hello everyone,My name is Shawn Questa, and I am an Architectural Designer and Real Estate Investor. 

The only real advantage to using an FHA loan is to offer only 3.5% down payment, which in my opinion is barely justified as an advantage. 

If you want to acquire more real estate I suggest more savings or sell the other property with equity.
