We are targeting an investment in the Vernon/Huntington Park area, however I'm unable to converse in spanish.If you come across any that are highly recommended, please do share your experiences and what to expect in terms of fees/scope of services/etc.

Mine is in the mid-600's and I'm self-employed, so I figured it's just easier to put her name on everything to get the lowest interest rate for the investment.Turns out I can't gift the funds to my wife for the Down Payment?

makes my life a bit easier. 

As a new investor which is better/ easier to obtain in order to purchase a home, loans or a buisness line of credit if I open up an LLC. 

Instead of throwing them out, perhaps it would be easier to make them want to leave?  

One of the more challenging thing in Multifamily is probably financing. in swaying that, once you figure that out it is easier. so to summarize, anything could look like a "big problem" if you don't know how to deal with it.

Having these facilities within a short walking, driving, or biking distance will dramatically improve quality of life and easier integration into the community.

Jokes aside, what areas are you targeting?

Both of us on loan, we get owner occupied interest rates and flexible down payment amount (although I feel I would want to put down 20% to remove PMI)Once Dad sells his home (easier to do than finding a duplex) he will give me about $55-65k of the profits, be the owner occupier in a duplex, go halfsies on repair/cap ex, but only wants to pay about $500 per month (he'll adjust for inflation!) 

I'd love to get started by house hacking in a multi family but that seems easier said than done in the Boston market?
