I'm a newbie and I am interested in a 2 to 4 family home that will position me to grow in real estate investing and provide a good level of cash flow while owner occupied.I plan to use an FHA first time home buyers loan to purchase the property, and I am looking in University City (63130), Soulard, Hi Pointe, Lafayette SqIf anybody has any advice or opportunities to work together, please let me know!

Sorry you are in this position.

These two factors were strong indications that we would gain additional equity, and maybe even increase our net worth.While it might be tempting to think that there is no way a house with an extra mother-in-law suite will be less valuable than a house with parking, it is worth making sure that you will have adequate equity when the project is done, and that you are not overbuilding the house.

In addition, the stock market has really been rallying this first part of the year, although that is obviously more speculative.  

Additionally, providing space for home-based businesses or shared offices may appeal to those needing occasional in-person meetings.

I should add, while that's CAN be nice to take losses/deductions, its better to actually be positive and make money.If you flip, you are considered dealing in inventory, not an investment property. 

The basic "hits" can be seen here: https://singlefamily.fanniemae...When the "adverse market fee" was in effect, it was in addition to those things at the link above.

In some situations, it may make sense to hire a pro to get the job done quickly and correctly, then you can rent it out earlier and offset the additional cost, or at least part of it.My first house took me six months to renovate.

In addition, QLS already took action following the AGO’s initial court action to ensure homeowners can now gain access to its office in Seattle.

It seems like a positive would be that I would be more confident they can pay every month and I could probably charge a little more since it’s now split 3 ways and get closer to market rents without cleaning or repairs.
