Not saying you didn't (or did) miss red flags but you asked for advice from those that have been doing this a long time and sometimes a bad tenant who knows how to play the game gets in. 

I don't know how realistic that threat is, but I wouldn't ignore it.With $100K down on a $14M property, you're at 0.07% down, so I don't thin you're anywhere close to being in the game for this one - and that's ignoring closing costs.On to the next deal.

I have been wanting to house hack as my way to get into the real estate game so i thought it would be a great way.

@Kaiden Foster I’ve only been at this short term rental game since September but so far so good. 

Too many new investors get so eager to get in the game, they buy something bad and lose it all before they even start.

I am new to the game.

You're playing placing a bet on the future game here. 

Hello all, my partner and I are new to the game and she has found a property and wants to explore being able to split a duplex into two tax lots. this does not sound in anyway advantageous to me but wanted to check with all of you as we are new to multi family homes.  

Keep shopping. rent a backhoe and do the digging yourself.......Lol all fun and games until someone who's never ran a backhoe a day in their life ends up punching a hole in the side of their building or hits a underground utility line because they didn't have the property marked out.  

I am not sure if it's a fragility issue or a participation trophy issue, but to become a great investor, you have to be open to diverse feedback, even if it's sometimes sarcastic when you think you found the deal of the century still on the market after 816 days in Scottsdale where every investor whets their beak every day.Anyone else seeing this?
