Newbie from San Francisco

[Zach Thomas]

Hi Everyone, I am excited to get involved in the BP community. A friend referred me to the podcast and after listening to 20+ episodes I am hooked. I am really looking forward to connecting with this community. I am 26 years old, my wife and I live in the city and have corporate jobs (in tech and engineering). I am developing my plan for wholesaling part time. Long term I would love to get to a point of buy and hold for cash flow. The Bay Area single family housing market is a pretty steep market for me to jump into at this point, so I am currently renting an apartment. I would really like to eventually "house hack" a 4 plex to begin building equity. Anyone have any experience with this approach in San Francisco proper? Seems to be challenging to find one below the FHA maximums in the city, this where I want some help getting creative. Would love to connect with anyone out there who has experience in the Bay Area. I understand that I'm short on hard capital, but I have plenty of human capital. I am eager to dive in and help those of you who are more experienced in the community in exchange for education.
