BP COMMUNITY IS HARSH but I LOVE IT! HERE IS WHY?

The BP community gave me advice on not getting started in real estate right now and focus on a job and save some capital and travel a little while making as little liabilities as possible. I didn't want to share my actual finance with strangers but Im a grown man and how someone is going to give you advice if they don't know your situation? Im thinking about house hacking and wholesaling though. I have a question about house hacking Im thinking about. I have a brother that I live with that is on section 8. He will be able to move anywhere in the country with section 8. Since I make money by traveling on the road, Im thinking it would be a good idea to buy a multifamily home and me and him stay on one side while renting the others out. While I'm gone on the road and can watch the property but can't do any maintenance work. Live in that for a year or two and invest in another multi/sfh. I want to know how this can work and NOT WHY HE WONT. ANY THOUGHTS? 

To see my first post in the BP forum copy the link below:
