The "wholesaling is the best place to start" line is complete bull@#% with no consideration for current market conditions.

So far, Seattle has seven permitted tiny house villages, though officials reportedly expect that number to increase by the end of the year.""

Will re doing the  properties siding and some exterior upgrades be sufficient enough to force the appreciation or is the only way to increase the appreciation is to rehab  each unit?

haha I still think South Bend is up and coming with the South Shore expansion, Notre Dame involvement, employment increases across multiple business categories throughout the entire region, and government support of a revival in downtown.

I am currently 24 years old.Here’s a little information on my current property (primary residence):Purchase Price: $130,000.00 Mortgage Balance: $99,937.34 Market Value: $180,000.00Market Location: Spring Hill, Florida, USA (Tampa Bay Area)Of course, the best scenario would probably be to move back with my parents, but, truthfully, I do not want to move back with my parents and siblings; however, I would be debt free and generating income from my primary employment.I feel that the downsides to selling my home is that the market in my area (currently a seller’s market) is extremely hot and, by holding onto the property, there is a likelihood that the value of the property will eventually increase substantially over the next few years.If you were in my position, what would you do?

You just have to have a good plan as to how you are going to bring up occupancy and increase the income.An any case, your goal would be to refinance in 2 years or so after the income has increased (and thus the value has increased as well) to take out the more costly (or lower leverage) financing.
