We all know that we are required to live in the house for 1 year when house hacking an FHA, but my question to you my trusty group of experts, is what happens when the property you are looking to buy is currently fully occupied? 

I was told by a good friend who is mold expert.

This should have all been professionally, expertly and legally handled without bothering you.

Connect with local experts to get a feel for their area. 

You need a local expert to help you with numbers, prediction, vacancy etc.

After cramming my brain with a lot of up-front RE knowledge, I have an important question for the BP experts.

I'm no expert, but look into installing a check valve in the floor drain to make the flow there one-way.

@Tuan L.I am no expert in your market but i would agree with all the others, I see to many people on here over rehabbing places that could have sold for almost the same price if they had done way less. 

Derek,Depends on many factors like your overall financial situation, do you want to be active or passive, if active, what skills, time, beyond capital would you bring or will you want, need partners.Having done SFR, small MF and large MF, I prefer large MF due to scale and how commercial properties are valued, enabling forced appreciation.If you are not educated or have no time, want passive, fractional ownership putting some of this money with experts who seek out limited partnership to provide capital to general partners (syndicates) is one option.

Drove around Norwich, New Britain and New HavenI hope to network with the local experts and take bold steps in this new chapter of my life.Starting with the meetup this evening in Manchester.
