In a situation and wanted to throw it out there just in case anyone has some input for me!

Hi @Thomas Mosely, my simple answer is:   Absolutely do not throw money at a course like this! 

Maybe an oversimplification of what they're saying in the podcast, but if you could refi your house at 3%, and then throw that money right into a general stock market ETF aiming for 8%, then you can conceivably consider debt the asset yielding you a 5% return. 

I really do not want to throw up somewhere between 10-30k if I am not going to make any money on the home or even lose money. 

What would you throw this money into ?

I'd just throw out there an option for the Sunnyside rental.

Lower money down to purchase, throw some money into it to make it look nice, and then place renters in there after a year? 

If I rent it makes me not responsible for anything thats happens with the house/apartment, but I would be throwing away money.I would love to buy a house, I love projects and home ownership is something I've always wanted to achieve. 

I would wonder if insurance might be substantially higher than normal landlord insurance (thinking about the tenants who throw big parties and destroy your property).

How will you keep them engaged for the next 6 months without throwing them any business?
