Newbie in Alliance Ohio looking to House Hack

[Philip Gumpl]

Hello everyone, 

I'm just starting my journey looking to get into rental properties. I have cash from our company being sold and ESOP and i'm looking to invest in the NE Ohio area, particularly looking around Canton, Akron, Stow and Cuyahoga Falls and areas around there. I have an agent and I've looked at a few places already. I've been reading and trying to learn all I can in a quick amount of time, especially need to work on how to analyze a property better. My goal is to House Hack, buy a duplex, triplex or fourplex and move into one of the apartments for a year or two before I buy another property. 

This site seems great and with a good community, so I'm happy to be here and ready to learn all I can. Thank you!
