As a first time home buyer does it make sense to invest in BP Pro

New to Real Estate · Appleton WI area · Member since 2021 · 1 post · 0 votes

So I am a first time home buyer. I'm looking to house hack a duplex in my local area (Appleton, WI) I don't have a home yet but I have just been pre approved and will begin searching soon, hoping to find and get into a place before March, 2022. I have just enough money for a down payment, closing costs and will have a decent emergency fund leftover.

My question is does it make sense to pay for the BP Pro now, or wait until I've got my own place? Can a first time home buyer use everything BP Pro has to offer right away? I'll have a bit more money that I can then use to invest in other properties; hence being able to utilize all the tools BP pro has to offer. I would like to get into buying more properties as quickly as my income will allow, I just don't know how fast that time line looks right now.

Thanks!

    There's plenty of content here for free, especially if you are talking about your first personal purchase. So I'd say no, you should not get BP pro just to buy your own home.

    I would agree with no but would ask you if find the information valuable, what would pay for it. You can get a lot for free and that's the point of BP.

    You can always go monthly and see how much you use the Pro features.  So far I've used the rental calc analysis way more than I thought.
