I have a lot of real estate experience, have worked in construction and have tools to work on a property myself.We've lived in Southern and Central California, currently in SW Oregon (went to college, lots of friends here), have family in San Angelo, Texas and near Seattle. 

I recently had a infill lot under contract to purchase so I can build a 2 family house.

I built my team of sub-contractors and now I focus primarily on mid-sized multi-family.

Either seller financing (if allowed), a private loan (friends / family) or something like that. 

The reason why I am unsure of this scenario is that I know the theory states that this is usually a non-owner-occupied property (someone buys a single family home close to their primary residence so that they can manage it and take advantage of the loophole in this manner). 

I have several single family home properties with over $100,000 equity in them and wondering if there is a way to tap the equity on those. 

I like to collect quite a bit of data on owners (family members, alternative addresses, deceased info, BKs and judgements, etc.) when I skip trace.

But most groups start with friends, family, church groups, anywhere you already have a circle of people that know, like and trust you.  

Sucks, but it's fast and less expensive than getting an eviction started.I was in this situation before where a previous owner did NOT have a post close stay in the contract but the extended family decided they weren't moving out.

Hi everyone,Last summer I purchased a nice single-family home in my town in southern Michigan to rent out.
