With so many resources available, 100% financing programs, down payment assistance programs, urban development programs, places where sellers are begging you to buy their homes, and platforms like this for free training and guidance why do so many people who want to get in REI fail to actually get their first home under contract. 

We were able to get seller credit to help off-set the cost, but now we have heard of some people getting a free roof with the installation of solar.

Its such a huge risk, I'd rather just buy it if at all possible. 

Seems that you would need an additional living space like a TV-free "living room" (something I had in the midwest growing up, but aint nobody got space or $$$ for that in California) or a finished basement (another non-existent luxury where I live) if you want an additional living space to spread people out. 

If you don't have any, then you would need to partner with someone who does.Hope all of that makes sense but feel free to ask anything additional.
