I have 10k Starting off what can i do now to get started.
So i may not have a lot of funds but I'm highly motivated and ready to get my foot in the door. I'm currently living in new jersey but have connections to Boston and Milwaukee Wisconsin. I want to take action and work towards my goal of financial freedom! I am a military veteran and have not used my VA loan but I'm willing to take on the job when it comes to house hacking but I'm open to all ideas. So if anybody wants to possibly work together I'm all for it!

Hi Luis!
My name is Kyle Curtin, I am a househacker and an investor focused agent in the Greater Boston & Central Massachusetts areas. I believe that you are in the right place, admire your ambition & wanted to thank you for your service!
My personal opinion for the Boston area depending on your work/responsibilities/life situation is to be able to leverage the power of your VA loan in a market closer to central Mass. The Boston area is one of the most expensive markets in the country, however the father west from the city that you go, the cheaper the property prices will be and potential for more "bang for your buck". Some of these markets are dominantly multi family buildings and have been in the process of being revitalized through different growth strategies. The VA loan can be very powerful and a phenomenal way to jump into real estate investing and is a big advantage.
I currently own a 3 family househack in Leominster, Mass (about 50 minutes west of Boston and 25 minutes north of Worcester) and I was able to purchase it for $470k back on December.
