My plan is to sell my primary home in New York and purchase a house to live in South Carolina.

LTR and MID term are hot now as well, we have more people that want houses than houses to rent to them.  

You could have bought a house, or several, that would have doubled in value.

The house is offered to the buyer at the ARV price, and we explain how we plan to rehab the property and its worth after repairs (ARV).The end buyer has to make a commitment of at least 10% of the ARV, provide proof of funds, and other documents required to list the property on our website.

Paying those things benefits you because they facilitate STUFF exiting the house. 

I understand moving out of your home and occupying a unit in a duplex may be the best financial decision but make sure it’s the best decision for your family because transitioning from a single family house to an apartment with a family of 4 is not always the easiest transition.

There are definitely risks that will be completely outside of the auction house.

Additionally, Airbnb’s policies support hosts when guests do not comply with house rules.

The house has appraised for $335k, my hard money note is for $242k, and I'm looking at only about $15k out once closing costs, taxes, and insurance are accounted for.

Philip, it really depends on your county’s housing authority.
