Depending on cost and effort to do this, it may present an opportunity in San Jose.  

We have a good apartment in socal in an area close to wife’s parents and looking to have children soon so want to stay close vs moving now.

@Gerardell Brown I’ve house hacked for close to 30 years.

This request adds a great attraction for your STR but could potentially put your property in a flood plane depending on how close you are to that specific body of water.

You would of course not deplete all of your cash reserves on the down payment in order to service the monthly debt payment and carrying costs, but this should give you an idea of what you can accomplish now if the time is right.Many hard money products offer 100% funding for rehab costs so you would not need to save for this portion of the BRRRR project.

I am an ambitious retired network engineer who started that career after closing down my first business which was in the automobile industry، sooner later I developed an interest in investing in my property and other ones by using Airbnb. it was a really funny story to begin but you know that after one year I would be managing 33 luxury apartments distributed across one of the fastest growing communities in my country.

That cost $2,300I went with a local artist who did the mural and the one by the pool for $4,200.Flooring is 4 large rugs with rug pads.Gaming systems are PS5 and Xbox One.You can see from my setup that a sofa/sleeper could easily add a queen bed capacity.

👀 I'd love to discuss some paths I can use to get this deal to closing!
