@Chase Wright House hacking is a great way to start but it definitely matters if you have a wife and three kids (CONGRATS!) then another starting point people suggest is wholesaling but that is rarely done correctly. I think your best is to keep reading and above all build your network reach out to local investors and ask what they need help with.

I work with special needs kiddos and we often call investors, lawyers, etc. and ask them how we can create an intern program where we help them and learn the business at the same time. It works very well. If you need more details please let me know. We're all rooting for you, you're going to do great Chase!

@Chase Wright may be easier, and somewhat "safer", to buy a new primary and rent out your current home.

Depends on motivation and ROI.

Real estate investing involves setting goals, checking if you're ready money-wise, and learning a lot. It's key to link up with local groups and pros. You need to look at different places, ways to pay, and decide if you'll buy nearby or far away. Using sites like Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com, figuring out deals, and doing your homework well are key steps. Property management, monitoring performance, and growth strategies like BRRRR can help scale a portfolio.

Good luck!

@Chase Wright do you own a primary already?

If not, buy a 2-4 family to rent out the other units or buy a 1-family and rent out the other rooms.

@Chase Wright, if you're starting out, most experienced investors would agree with me that you should house hack your first deal to gain experience. If you're new to the investment strategy of house hacking, read "The House Hacking Strategy" by Craig Curelop. House hacking is one of the most risk-averse investment strategies and is relatively straightforward for beginners. 

Hey @Chase Wright, feel free to reach out if you need any advice on getting started, I'm also here in Dallas. I'd recommend speaking with @Matt Solis as well!
