Wondering what are the different ways everyone got the money to put down on a property and the way to finance it?

I’d recommend shopping around with different DSCR lenders and considering lenders who specialize in investment properties for more flexible terms and options.Good luck with your investing journey!

Look at the results in multiple ways and over different time horizons.

I had two different companies.. one in Oakland CA circa 88 to 92 all investors all private and all 100% of funds for loans put up from the investors. 

You may want to research the tax differences between corporation and LLC for holding real property.California is generally more cumbersome than other states when it comes to taxes and filings.

Look for multis with separate entrances in different areas like one door in front for one unit and a door on the side or back for another.

Or would you just use the cash flow from your old unit to make up difference?

planning to list them for 2024 taxes as 6 different properties and when rehab will be done , I will get all 6 deeds, can I sell individual condo and 1031 based on basis I will show?

If that's the case, maybe look at a different house hacking strategy that might work (like a SFR with an ADU or renting by the room, ie having roommates).2.

That's a bit different than this situation, but just wanted to share.
