With this loans it seems you cannot build a multi-family home.

Assume $5k per unit and count the exterior as a unit, so a 4 family would be 5 units and assume $25k expense after closing.If you have any questions, let me know, I'd be happy to answer them for you.Good Luck,Derreck

Hey, @Eric Kajka Welcome to the BP Family, and congrats on your first "Live and Flip"!

Currently own my primary residence and 2 investment properties are a beach condo (short term) and single family home (long term rental).The problem is I run a successful business and have no time to do the research in new markets, deal flow, upgrades, making sure cashflow, property management, etc.I am also not a real estate professional.

This isn't my situation, but one of a family member who has asked me what I think.House is owned by family member, let's call this the RentingFamilyMember.

What did you do with all of that space/how did you divide it, if at all - multi family, short term rental, other?  

Melanie,I don't have a STR arbitrage, but I do own a single family STR.

Chicago Lawn is a much different area than Woodlawn or south shore - there are a lot more single family and small 2-4 unit properties, and the area is less dense generally.
