I wouldn't even consider this option unless you are getting what the home is worth. 

(my house was underwater completely except for the crest of the roof) ALso, the city wasn't letting anyone back on the island (even owners) for like 14ish days (I forget the exact number), so ALL of the non-raised houses were full of mold by time anyone was allowed to go in and start doing things. 

This is hard to do , even harder long distance 'As a contractor I can tell you this , rehabs almost always go over budget , and take longer than expected .

Thanks for noting that my debt pay down shouldn't really factor into this even though it does increase the amount of money needed to get this AirBnb up and running. 

However, don't expect the property to cash flow even with a house hack deal.

You're being asked to pay $3000 to learn lending from a man that has zero formal credit background, lost his professional license in AZ, and who didn't even get into real estate until 2011...so he's never been through a downturn.

Dont quit your day job until you have 1 hour left in Sunday evening to relax.  

Yeah, if it's truly $300,000 below market, it would sell 100 times over, even if the death were disclosed.

They don't even take away your voucher if you burn your landlord's house down with a grow operation.

I am local and could even view in person to get a real time experience if you like.
