And I have only bought 2 because he doesn't get that many deals because he is realistic with numbers.Moral of the story, don't buy anything until you feel you get a full grasp of it.  

@Jacob I Strauss thanks for sharing your story and the awesome advice!

(Probably should have made that the title... but it won't let me now lol Hope you enjoyed the story)I need somewhere to live temporarily while I work on my deal and perform and repairs needed to make the space habitable, hopefully no more than 2 months, but my first idea was renting an RV and just basically vacationing with my dogs during the process, it would be fun, but very cold and me + 3 large dogs might get cramped for that long. 

Hey Michael, Yes - Hals story was one of my favorite parts of BPCON21!

--> I was trying to earn as much sweat equity as possible and only invested about $25,000 into the deal to make that happen.The house is a three-story cash machine.

Goals and story: My fiancé Katie and I purchased this home this past March after moving back east from Northern California.

What's your back story?

We thought we had this covered with the HUD architect review but it looks like our pre-construction lender to HUD- did not know we wanted the green cert for interest and point savings.We have 2 builds- 1 80% done and the second is on the development path with construction beginning in 4 months.  42 units for 1 and 40 for the other- 3 story walk-up. 

There are also tax breaks should you only own the asset for a five or seven year period. 

If you don't wanna read story and wanna get right to reason for post.
