I've learned so much through this forum and really want to get my real estate journey started.

Let’s say you discount it 50%, $250k for $500k value it starts great (100% return, but rate or return after would be 2 times the appreciation while at 80% LTV the return be 5 times the appreciation.  

I’m a new investor, and I’m planning to start with house hacking.

It took close to 15+ years, but states are finally catching on that the majority of loans are no longer held by banks and by non-bank lenders who are selling them off to private equity and other non-bank funds including individuals and they are starting to hear about the shady stuff going around.Regarding straight sub-to and banks calling loans etc., this I think is longer term implosions as I am seeing people who absolutely should not be buying a home as they have no money buy them sub-to because of little down payment and will eventually lose the property and that is when many whose mortgages are still on the property come out and sue.

This is a journey I am eager to start I guess you can say I am all in!

I took care of our contractors, material acquisition, etc.I have been here every day since development started.
