House hacking is competitive

MD Nahid

Posted

I wanna get started in real estate investing and I find the best way is to do is to buy a duplex and house hacking. Unfortunately, I find it is very difficult to find small multifamily to buy for a rental properties in my market. Most duplexes are in the c-class neighborhoods or need some renovations. I am still in college but I definitely want to get started as early as possible but I am still trying to figure out the best way to enter the market to buy the right deal. any thoughts?

I would call duplex owners in an area that you would like to live in, look to meet the sellers and that will create opportunities for you over time.
