I know only a tiny bit.
Biggest obstacle is the funding. It's not easy to get a loan/mortgage for that. You will almost for sure need to pay for it fully.

I'm planning on doing this for myself someday. SoI would like to learn more.

So you saw that video on social media about the 6 acre €750k property in Tuscany huh?

My wife and I are currently sharing one vehicle and considering purchasing a 2nd car, most likely Tesla Model Y. Tesla lowered rates from 2.99% to 2.49% 72 months. Is that considered a good rate? Has anyone else went with another auto loan? Also thinking about buying a 2nd home. Would financing a car before buying a house have any major impacts? I have a credit score at 794.

Best place to get pre-qualified for a mortgage?

I have some collections on my credit report. One from an electric company for $800 (imo they violated terms of contract and sent me to collections in spite of their fuck up), and an apartment for $80~ that charged me a cleaning fee when my apartment was spotless.

Despite these two collections have a 712-720 credit score.

So mortgage lenders care at all about the collections or is it mostly the credit score that matters?

Just bought a new primary residence that needs work. Current home has ~$100k equity after buying in 2019 with <$20k down (appreciated around 20% in the last 3 years, in a major metro area). Would you:

1) Lock in the appreciation & sell now. Use some for renovations/other investments.

2) Keep for another 2-3 years & rent out for a small cash flow (<100/month if self-managing), get a HELOC if needed. Note it would not pass my investment criteria if buying today.

3) other approach?
