If you do that you COULD trigger one cause or another with them, but buying with the intent of living at a place as your primary for a period is almost always legit - even if you're not selling your current home. 

A concern is whether your an accredited investor or not?

Then when they get down to the last few properties or have lower inventory then they "fire sale" them out causing the market to take an immediate down price.As I mentioned to my investors multiple times last year and this year stay away from New construction or New builds in smaller towns or as the last few phases are being built if at all possible unless you are building your own multifamily 2-4 unit rentals.

If price is your main concern, there are plenty of affordable markets around New England where MTRs still make sense financially.

The ABC trade has been on all year.There are a lot of similarities to the GD-- tariffs causing lack of trust, gold rush, etc.

@Jacob PeirsonThe Real Estate Crash of 2008-2010 caused real estate prices to crash across the country - but didn't affect rent amounts.

One of my concerns too is how big is the market for rent by the room for tenants?

If a lender wants to enforce a Due On Sale, a Land Trust violates the DOS anyway so it is ineffective in stopping the Due On Sale call.Line 35 is always negotiable, but the seller needs enough to rent an apartment and move their belongs or they will become squatters which causes serious problems.

Tough situation caused by "maybe". 

That ‘hands-to-action’ mindset will serve you really well as you transition into flipping full time.Totally hear you on the GC concern — I think almost every investor has a story about at least one tough experience there.
