@Blake Edwards - Perfect, I know it's going to take a little time to figure all this out but I figured it's best to narrow down my focus to a specific niche in real estate. In the region there are tons of duplexes going up but they are brand new making it expensive. Also, this is a basic question, but why would somebody choose to rent a duplex instead of simply financing it with a mortgage? I've just wondered on more of the specifics to this.

Hi! @Tim Herman thank you very much! I will definitely look into that! Another option I thought about doing would be purchasing a duplex with an owner occupancy loan and renting out one side for about a year. What are your thoughts and strategies for doing something like this?

Hi! @Blake Edwards thank you very much! I will definitely be sure to keep that all in mind! An area I thought about as well was potentially buying a duplex with an owner occupancy loan and renting out one side. Any thoughts on this avenue?

Hello everyone,

I'm fairly new to BiggerPockets and its forums, but I have grown an extreme interest in real estate investing. I want to get into the buy & hold and house hacking area of real estate within the Northwest Indiana region. I recently got engaged and will need to be finding a place to live by next October 2020, but I wanted it to be a potential investment property for us as well. I'm reaching out to see if anybody can help me get the ball rolling on this. I am currently working on my real estate license, reading books and beginner guides on BiggerPockets, along with working as a credit analyst at a bank in the commercial loan department. Any and all advice is appreciated!

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

I'm fairly new to BiggerPockets and its forums, but I have grown an extreme interest in real estate investing. I want to get into the buy & hold and house hacking area of real estate within the Northwest Indiana region. I recently got engaged and will need to be finding a place to live by next October 2020, but I wanted it to be a potential investment property for us as well (maybe buying a duplex and renting one side or purchasing REO, etc.). I'm reaching out to see if anybody can help me get the ball rolling on this. I am currently working on my real estate license, reading books and beginner guides on BiggerPockets, along with working as a credit analyst at a bank in the commercial loan department. I really want to achieve financial cial freedom from real estate by developing passive income. With that said, any and all advice is appreciated!

Thank you!
