If you have not then going from never doing this to managing a more management-intensive strategy like co-living may not be a good idea.

Hi @Nicole Foglia why not keep the ground floor commercial and lease it out to a business?

I would like to tap that but my interest rates are super low (2.8- 4.0%) I have also considered doing a business line of credit.

It will be the key to most businesses moving forward operating inside of the real estate investing space.

Or do you simply have to be obsessed to even have a chance to make it in this business?

Let me know if you're still looking at that deal and I would be happy to run some numbers and give you a good idea of what the property might be worth.  

Lots a great ideas in there.

I have to add my experience with Josh Cantwell & all of his businesses.

Definitely a focus area from lenders, conventional or otherwise - theres been a reported uptick in occupancy fraud or funny business lately as rates and values have continued to be so high and qualifying so tough - people are more likely to bend the rules on stuff like this - so this is generally the lender response

Could the argument be made that he had the experience because of the business he ran?...
