How do I invest in the Boise market

[Danielle McMurphy]

Hi there everyone! I live in the Boise area and am looking to start my real estate/investment journey, but am trying to decide how to break into the market here. I am hoping you guys can give me some advice as to how a rookie investor with limited funds can get started in a hot market like Boise. I’d preferably love to purchase a multifamily property and house hack it, but won’t be able to afford one unless I can find an incredible deal. I’ve also considered pursuing wholesaling and putting off my investing dreams for now considering the drastic inflation we are having here. I guess I’m just trying to find my best plan of action, and would be so appreciative of any advice you guys can give me!

Hey Danielle! 

I totally get how hard it can be to start out in an expensive market, I started out in California about a decade ago, and am now an investor and agent here in the Boise market. Wholesaling/Finding deals will always bring money, if you have a deal, someone will buy it. 

House hacking has become even easier nowadays with low down conventional loans (3.5%), or IHFA, FHA, etc. If you want to come to a meetup or grab a coffee and chat and see if there is anything I can help you with id be more than happy to!
