Except we do need to try and convert Dave from a Kansas State fan to an Iowa State fan, but we will try that another time. :)

As an example, in your case, the bridge loan would be used to convert your existing mortgage into a temporary loan with a very low monthly payment.

I've noticed in my area that houses that have been converted into 2 units tend to sit on the market for much longer and sell for much less than traditional single family houses with similar sqft and finishes.

Can any of your rentals be converted to an MTR or STR?

You could look into getting a HELOC loan to convert some of the equity from your house into a deposit for the next house.

If there's local boom in industry we should see the effect in immediateterm not in short tem, so what really happened in 2020-2022 is really big mistake by Fed.Also it seems very natural that in the next ten years we see lot of consolidation in the big business, much less small biz owner, and everything is owned by the conglomeration of some very powerful big names that generates cash from their operation.America is going to be more controlled by big company regardless who is in power in the goverment.So some folks are selling SFHs now in large masses to transfer into t-bills in the short period(4-8 week duration) then enter 2024 with funds to come into CRE to convert into storage, MFH(with better terms), and I think some other plays.

If it's working as an LTR and you are cash flowing, I'd be willing to bet that the juice won't be worth the squeeze in converting them to STRs. 

I would have had to sign a contract to convert furnace, hot water heater, stove, and clothes dryer to gas.

Higher maintenance and repair costs (even low to no skill workers demand 35-40% higher labor)This has led us to diversify our strategy and convert some of our units into MTR's instead of LTRs to increase margin.

Hi, I want to rent my house 6 brs, 2.5 bas as two rental units without converting into a duplex.
