Hey I did call a few lenders regarding a DSCR loan which required me to hold and have an investment property for one year so I don't think that would be an option as of yet.

Acquire a primary residence, and while out of town for work, rent the property as either an STR or MTR.

I’m sure this is an easy one but I am new to this strategy.

An LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.

I am not an investor in Milwaukee however I have spoke with property managers in my market to get an understanding of what the process would look like and these are some of the questions/ criteria worth considering!

Put it on the MLS with an agent.

However, as an investor, I’m concerned about falling values and losing equity.

As a general contractor, I have a strong understanding of the buying, selling, and financing processes, which gives me an edge in evaluating and improving properties.

You could consider house hacking to reduce out of pocket expenses.It’s definitely an appreciation play not a cash flow play but with the federal government here appreciation is consistent - you won’t get super high appreciation like some places but also don’t get high depreciation as well.

I own a home that has turned into an immediate problem child.
