.#4, I definitely need to find time to meet the investors in the area..From what I've seen, lower range homes have higher cash flow, which is what I'm after.

It would have been the buyers choice on how to access the problem and it it an undisclosed material fact possible hurting the value of the property.

30 years would give you a lower P&I payment and better Cash Flow.

So regardless my current living expenses will be much lower than any house hack I think that I will find here but the point for me to house hack is to begin real estate investing.

Prices lower and rents good. 

So it can be a great way to get into an A or B building/neighborhood at a lower cost.

If you can't get a professional looking job, it will look like the tenants (novices) painted it, and will lower the desirability of the unit for the next occupants.Keep with neutral, off-white colors, keep it simple--it will broaden the appeal to the greatest number of potential renters.

More points of entry and access ought to result in a more resilient economy, but it can also play the other way - by having so many small operators, each could be loathe to part with his/her money, meaning that the system can freeze up pretty easily because of the lack of well-fortified employers that can absorb economic shock.

If you are north of the Watterson the property values are a little lower and the rent a little lower.

This one we wanted to put in my name as a second home so we don't have to put 20% down and have a lower interest rate.
