My intention was to finish the remodel immediately while living there, then move onto cash out refi, splitting the lot, and/or partnering with a developer.In regards to the lot split, I have reached out to the city and expect a call back in a few days on feasibility.

Alternative means of purchase; HELOC if possibleNow one thing to consider here that I'd be happy to chat with you about in greater detail if you'd like is alternate ways to have your portion of the land income producing (if this is indeed a 'speculative investment scenario) - RV winter storage - ATV storage - POD storage Basically there are endless ways to have some income coming in IF this property isn't already producing for you and isn't tillable, and I can help you figure that out if you'd like.

Past tenants have used it for storage of art supplies, or to keep reptiles and whiffle board table. 

I'd also like to close in 30 days, is that feasible or average?

I've been managing for 11 years and currently have about 400 rentals and 350 storage units.

And do you think house hacking is still feasible with a family because while i entertain the idea of doing if and believe its the best way to start my spouse does not seem so interested.

I want to make sure I know as much as I can before actually getting started with it so I can avoid as many beginner mistakes as I can.We are looking to see what would be the most feasible for us to do and what the best way to invest in European real estate is in our position.

It just becomes a matter of cost and feasibility.

The house is on well/septic and the storage tank runs out of water every day.
