I am looking to begin my family’s real estate investing journey in the next 1-2 years as we save up for the purchase. We have been putting most of our extra money into retirement accounts before this. I have only been looking at residential, single family, but today I found two commercial spaces (office) that would be a great fit for my growing day job business as a lactation consultant (currently operate just by doing home visits, but want a dedicated office space to see clients one day). I would be looking at basically “house hacking” the office space as there would be 4 designated suites. I would love to hear any and all thoughts about this as a first or early purchase including financing details I may not fully understand for commercial properties.
