What’s a good amount to have saved up for first multifamily property?
I plan to house hack my first investment property. I'm looking for a duplex or triplex in Delaware County, PA for around 200k-300k. I wanted to start off with working on a property with only minor repairs and cosmetics. I was going to use an FHA loan to put 3.5% down and live in it as an owner-occupant. What's a good estimate you think I should have for the down payment, closing costs, repairs, holding costs, and reserves?
