The latter is really a FHA product with all the inspection requirements, much more approvals and info (to even get the loan), required to use one General Contractor (properly licensed or registered as required by your state/locality), need to pay for inspector for each monetary draw (so either your contractor will work on credit or you need to float cash)That’s the quick points.

When you want to make a draw, you generally need to pay for another inspector (not the building / plumbing/electrical inspector) to come out and see the work was done and properly before the bank sends money..The big issue with house hacking and hml is the occupation.

We even had a great home inspector who pointed out a ton of things.

working with a different city inspector from the last flip, different cities have different rules.

For my first property I am planning to take it safe and invest with a friend to get a single tenant rental property in Indianapolis. 

Despite COVID-19, Houston had about 8.1% increase in rent since March 2020.Real Estate Professionals like Title Company, Loan Officers, Appraisers, Home Inspectors,and General Contractors have been busier than ever.

it came in from another area which was subsequently patched. the foundation has some slight cracks...the house inspector told me it wasn't serious, so i still went ahead with the deal. hopefully he was right :)

Just purchased an occupied triplex in Indianapolis, IN.

Our inspector said that it was possibly a garage that was converted to a livable unit...there's a kitchen, brand new electrical panel, bathroom etc.

I'm not a home inspector and I don't know of any other Realtor who would be doing this).
