But the name of the game is skate to where the puck is going....this market seems to have a vibe of affordable housing, space, yard, single family, etc... in my opinion Not sure about NY, but Cleveland has pockets of massive appreciation.Tremont, Lakewood, Ohio city - all neighborhoods of 2x-4x appreciation over 7-10 year horizon..... not sure now as I never had the stomach for the risk/reward.I always operate in the same market since I’m a high velocity flipper and deals exist all over the Midwest key is building relationships and trust in your market.

I realize that the skin in the game thing comes up over and over again. 

Looking for local investors in the tri-cities who are in the multi-family house hacking market/game

Hi all, I'm a rookie looking to get into the game.

Perhaps she would Seller Finance it to you and take the monthly payouts, at her age Fixed Income payouts like that make sense.

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

I have zero specific knowledge of this other than knowing someone who has a house with a video game addiction program out in the country where no one knows and no one cares....but my gut says you would have zero chance of doing this with a townhome lease because on top of every state, county, city and ward issue you will need to navigate, you have the homeowners association and very close neighbors who will raise holy hell.

I would not beat yourself up too much over it.PM or not it happens and it is part of the game.

I have gotten nothing but No's.Sometimes I just want to relax and take a break, but this is when the game. really tests you as an entrepreneur .Additionally , my mentor said 1000 calls=. 1 offer.

Lenders and investors will want you to have skin in the game once the deal is closed.
