Louisville KY — what strategies work here?

[Tristin Allen]

Moving to Louisville KY in summer 2024 and will have significant gains from the sale of our current home. Interested to hear from other folks in the Louisville area what strategies work the best here. This is be our first real estate investment beyond a primary home. Long term goals of buying back my time so I can spend more with my kids. Cash flow somewhat more important than appreciate but we are looking for a balance.

We are open to house hacking, multi family LTR, and midterm rentals (I understand there may be new legislation passing regarding STR but may still be able to do with a househack.

Appreciate any advice!

I'd skip str in Jefferson County. Multi house hacks still work. I'm not high on midterms personally. I'd force some appreciation on whatever you do.
