Originally I was looking to start with Airbnb because the returns are so great, however held back on that because my area could get regulated and then I’m screwed because for the long term rental a single family home won’t cut it  so now mostly looking into multifamily   

Renter sends in a total of 4800 = 1st month, last month, security deposit.I had lower standards in the past and when renters move out, their security deposit dont cut it.

Buy cash or work with a CDN bank that has ties in the states (RBC and HSBC) I think? 

They took an aggressive stance in 2018, too, then by early 2019 they were already cutting the Federal Funds Rate again.

If the slope/uneven floors aren't too bad I wouldn't mess with it, just make sure the joists are good and that they haven't been cut or broken, if there has been normal shrinking/settling thats common . 

Personally, buying the primary in cash, and then using equity to fund other projects seems counterintuitive to me, as you will be taking out more expensive debt to fund your other projects, and have it all tied in your primary.

Fortunatly for me I do not have any other ties to weigh me down so, I can soley focus on my business with limited distractions.

I have the cash for the down payment but I’m trying not to keep it tied up if that makes sense.

Define it in a contract with an attorney, have an exit plan and clear cut responsibilities or accountability structure. 

Once again this ties back to step 1, analyzing what your end goal is.4.
