We don’t quite have the time/resources to do a total renovation, but we were always hoping to house hack in a decent multifamily that we could do some cosmetic upgrades on and could hold and sell down the line after he moves from Ft.

I'm just starting out investing in RE but I want to make sure I'm doing all I need to do properly and legally.

I want to get into apartment buildings and I've found a 6 unit to start with.

. - Conventional purchase with 20% down using a HELOC: Current cashflow from the SF could cover a big portion of the HELOC payment, but this starts to feel risky from a cashflow and funds available for rehab.- Conventional and move there/rent out my primary: Certainly the best option, but a hard no from my S.O.'

I think I’m just going to start doing dynamic RUBS because I can’t keep paying for their water but I want to make it more fair than just dividing by 3 every month.
