That roadmap, as of right now, is outlined.Learn - Keep FTJ (Full Time Job)Books, podcasts, BP, peopleFTJ and PTJ options: Go back into being a residential handyman and contractorWholesale - Keep FTJRamp up Wholesaling, possibly until either quitting or finding a PTJ to offset Wholesaling goal - raise capital to flip laterPlataeu Wholesaling, ramp up Flipping while ramping down WholesalingPlataeu Flipping, ramp up Buy-and-HoldLong Term Goal: rental portfolio with extra capital to invest in othersMy motivation does include swinging hammers (I love the physical work), but I recognize that won't be where I need to put myself to make money past the short-term (and my body won't be able to do that forever).

@Todd Powell, you're right a contingent contract can be tough (but not impossible - it's worth the ask,  the larger the asset the more willing they can be) when trying to consolidate a portfolio.  

@Alexander Felice, it’s actually a portfolio loan.

I work for a property management company as the CFO and we have quite an extensive portfolio of units we manage, should you need some perspective on the manageKent side!

I am interested in the house hacking game.

Now I would like to buy a multi family property and really get into the game.

My portfolio lender offers a 5/25 with a rate based on the 5 year treasury yield + 3% (~6% today).The difference in rate is not that much, but since this property is on my personal name (rare), I’ll go with the conventional loan.

@Douglas SpenceHad the same thing happen to me with a portfolio purchase. 

@Kenneth McKeown (Marine veteran) has helped a lot of guys of BP and other veterans find MFHs in the area that cash flow well and get them in the game.
