I can definitely tell you there's still a lot of positive cash flowing and 1% rule deals and you get amazing appreciation.

If its constantly rented , then keep renting it , keep the cash rolling in .

I have someone in Utah who sets it up for us upfront and teaches us how to use it and then after that its simple.

Well in this new model you would essentially pay your investors 7% in the form of a debt service, therefore when you decide to do a cash out refinance you pay your lenders their 7% and you own all the equity in the property that you acquired.

Purchase price: $445,000 Cash invested: $22,000 Househacked and rented out all units

It would cash flow as a rental property but not as much as a multi. 

Kinda dumb of him to not offer this to you up front....

If your property appreciates 12,000 per year you are making $1000 per month plus your cash flow.

Purchase price: $250,000 Cash invested: $2,500My wife and I invested in our first short term property in Lake Junaluska, NC.

I did see a few great townhomes but the $960 HOA fee's are grossly out of whack and kill cash flow.Henderson, Summerlin, Spring Valley, The Lakes all have some great properties if you know where to look or have an agent who tends to get pocket listings.
