Best option to start rental property investing

[Rianna Mcgee]

I am really interested in the house hacking method, however, there doesn't seem to be a lot of options in my area for multifamily properties (especially duplexes, which is my target). What is the next best option for getting into rental property investing? I am aware of the BRRRR method and would eventually like to do it, but is there a cheaper option for first starting out?
