I’ve been a serial house hacker in the greater Boston area so happy to connect and share some lessons learned.Multifams inventories are quite low depending on your budget and location preferences.  

@Dan Deppen owns a company that does the underwriting.Once its underwritten then you also must make sure you use a third party licensed servicer to follow fdcpa requirements and consumer protection laws.Lastly, depending on the state you are in, you may need a lender license or servicing license in order to orginate loans.

Hey @Jonathan Sanchez, a lot will depend on your area.If you are buying in a saturated area with lots of competition, then using an aggregator like Pricelabs to help make your pricing accurate is handy.If you are in an area that has less, then simply looking at nearby properties that are similar to yours on VRBO and AirBNB.

With your brother’s $50K equity already in the property, this should make the loan-to-value ratio favorable for refinancing.HELOC monthly payment on $68K: ~$300 (depends on your rate and term).Lease payment from brother: $800/month.Future mortgage (refinance $68K over 30 years at 6%): ~$400/month

I agree, I think it's contextual depending on someone's starting point.

Depends on the property honestly. 

If the $700K sales price is not used correctly to acquire qualified real estate, the exchange could fail, triggering tax liability.Future exchanges will depend on the total value of the replacement property acquired, so entering syndications could limit flexibility.

Any location or decor can create a great ROI depends on the purchasing price.

it's going to vary depending on the market and what you're looking for to meet your goals. 

Without population growth, your rental income will lag behind inflation, requiring you to find additional sources of income.How long your rental income lasts depends on the job growth in the investment city.Non-government jobs are inherently temporary.
