I believe that is the best idea because we can get "immediate" cash when we close on the flips (for income and saving to invest back in), as oppose to gradually building cash flow on the BRRRR.

It's a gradual step up from buying individual mobile homes on rented land.

@Lloyd SilverThe decision to start with SFH and gradually move up to multi family seems to be the trend.  

The other thing is I don't have the 200k in cash it would take to fix it...I could buy it ( seller financed) and fix the house in front, then use monthly income ( plus money from my other 2) to gradually do the big 8 Plex on back.

The program gave me 100k interest free, however it’s an equity share program where they will get 100% of 20% of the equity during the first few years I’m in the home gradually decreasing the more years I’m in the home.

I gradually rehabbed a 20-unit apartment complex that way.

I will gradually rise rents up closer to market rates as they renew each year.  

And start with the local active stuff and then gradually rotate into syndicates. 

When I decided last year to gradually convert my units to LTR, I tried CHBO and FF for a few months.

I've had mine for almost 6 years now and have been gradually making them more and more tenant friendly as needed.
