Once my zoning variance was granted, I expected getting the building permit would be straightforward.

Hope I’m on the right path.

It was pretty straightforward when I had one single family rental but has gotten more complex especially with the multi-family.

That's why I created a step-by-step approach for the investors you genuinely are trying to help, but cannot be deterred from continuing down the misguided path their mentors, coaches and gurus have sent them: 1.

I would cash out if I didn't see a path to positive revenue. 

Stay on that path and you will be financially free (if you choose) within 10 - 15 years.

Fast forward to 2024, and we have a renewed interest on buying some multifamilies to hold, dabbing on mobile homes, and even buying some single family properties to flip.I am looking forward to learning from this wonderful group of investors, and follow some of you on your path.

If things go sideways, you will have much more than a simple eviction to contend with.Keep the paperwork simple and straightforward:  I suggest you do a lease with an option to buy. 

Would love to discuss different paths you can take based on your investing goals and financing options based on your strategy.

I'm unsure what the right path is, but I've been reading about investing in owner-occupied, multi-family properties.
