First time home buyer/house hacker in Indy

[Noah Everett Farmer]

Hey BP,

I am a healthcare professional in Indianapolis. I am looking to buy my first house and house hack in this year. I would like a duplex, triplex or quadplex. I currently live in Broadripple but am open to other areas in Indy that make sense investment wise. I like Washington Township, Irvington (near), Fountain Square, Bates-Hendricks etc. I am open to suggestions. I am a rookie trying to educate myself as quickly and efficiently as possible via the podcast and BiggerPockets books right now. I would love to connect with some locals. Any suggestions on local people, companies or areas to invest would be amazing. I’m all in and can’t wait to get started.

Thank you in advance BP,

Noah

Hi Noah, 

I too am focusing on education and connection. 

It looks like Jaron had mentioned this, and I would like to second that being patient is key.

Further getting out and about is something good to focus on. Talk with people in the areas you are seeking out and walk, bike, and drive the area at different times and days of the week. 

Make sure you know your why and goals, that at least helped me to structure and narrow down targets. Each day of this journey, I learn more and more about how much mindset can shape perspective. Welcome aboard!
