At a high level, you’ll want to understand:• land acquisition• zoning + entitlement• architectural plans• permitting• financing (construction loan vs hard money)• GC bidding + subs• inspections• certificate of occupancy + exit strategyOnce you understand the order of operations, everything else starts to make sense.2.

There are a lot of creative financing options out there right now (since you said you don't have a lot of cash to start).

@Gregory Peeplez not sure where you got the idea that you could be an, "owner & passive investor"?

a house hack is where you purchase a property using owner occupant financing, and then rent out some of it (or most of it!) 

What are the best ways to secure financing for a 3+ multi-family property?

But beyond that, your best deals are almost always knowing a property, watching it decline, tracking the owner and reaching out to be the call they make when they are finally done with it.

Once you have those things in order seller financing is a great option.

Pay a pm and the profit is significantly reduced 4) alternative below market financing such as assumable, owner finance, wraps, sub to, etc 5) path of progress.
