I am planning on waiting to refi until rates come back down a bit.

I'm curious to hear about others' experiences with implementing their plans for initial improvements.

My plan is to endorse the insurance claim check, send it to my lender to pay off the mortgage, and request a check for the remaining balance.

@Kashta Andrade Booker I recommend moving forward that the specific city or area you plan to invest in out-of-state.

Hello everyone.I plan on househacking and, since multi-family is hard to come by, I have heard some people buy a SFH and live in the basement while renting out the rest of the home and renovate the basement in the process.To me it seems like it wouldn't really impact rent amounts too much unless I added bedrooms and I feel like the deal would already have to cash flow because of that I know this can be pretty nuanced but I am open to everyone's thoughts.Thank you!

I do plan on managing my first property myself if it's a buy and hold, and as I accumulated more properties I will be hiring a PM company. 

The variance will be granted based off the site plan submitted at the time and the variance application.

My client's plan was to live in the property for a year and then refinance, however I explained that you'll only be able to refinance to another loan type if you have enough equity (20-25%).

Planning a flip of the property with 50k cash buyout + 40k estimate of renovations.We've considered paying cash for property, obtaining loan for 90k-100k and paying ourselves back first before starting renovations. 

Our plan is to start our business/investment there.
