Before you can look for deals, you need to have your goals in mind, your team in place, your criteria specified, and your paperwork prepared. 

I essentially have the renter paying back the loan, and then, once the loan is paid off, I will raise the rent.

Movement Mortgage does a lot of them, but I've found the toughest part is to find a contractor willing to do the paperwork and get paid on a draw schedule. 

And he explained that he had tried to sell 2 years ago, but the buyers never finished the paperwork, moved into the home, and ghosted him.

Realtors aren't just there to advertise and show houses, they are like little attorneys who take care of a large stack of paperworks with all sorts of disclosures, contingencies, and the like to decipher through.

I think you are better off finding a single family home in a reasonable price range and adding an ADU (making it essentially a duplex). 

Essentially the commission doesn't hit the agent as income which can potentially help with taxes, too!

The paperwork and the back and forth can be crazy.

Hi @Timothy Swenton, on Friday I filed the LLC formation paperwork after reviewing the form with my attorney.

Using the LLC-to-personal loan strategy establishes a mortgage on the property from your LLC to you personally and essentially just makes any subsequent refinance a traditional refinance where the seasoning period is not a concern.
