I plan to rent BnB for as long as the market allows while maintaining a viable sale exit down the road.I'm also still deciding between stick vs. modular and am leaning towards modular for energy efficiency (title 24/desert/off grid), quick timeline (builders in the area are booked 6-12 months), and ease of oversight.  

Stashing cash in envelopes can help you build a safety net, but you’ll save faster and more efficiently if your money is growing passively in a high-yield savings account.More: Check out our latest list of the best savings accountsMethodologyEvery month, MagnifyMoney surveys consumers to find out whether they added money to their savings — and what they’re saving for.

Again, we are OK with that, as the energy efficiency helps us go all-electric to avoid gas infrastructure and will save us money on water, which we intend to include in the rent (landlords are responsible for unpaid water bills in this jurisdiction).On top of this, we have an opportunity to get a $300,000 loan from federal HOME funds. 

The more specific you are, the more efficient the conversations will be.

I would like to take the most efficient and effective way of obtaining these properties.

My goal is to save 60k for a down payment, but I am having trouble deciding the most efficient ways to save it.

In one of my current jobs (I work part-time construction), having the tools inside has been troublesome for efficient work and trades scheduling as there's too much junk inside.

@JD Martin Solid and efficient process.

That's not the end of the world, but it seems like they may be more effective and efficient if you can keep their tasks as similar as possible.
