Thanks for all the info guys! I been looking at quite a few houses so far in my area there really isn't a lot of duplex or triplexs but our realtor did show us a few houses withing a few miles from Western University which has very good potential for college students or even a single family home. We are looking at 1 duplex today in the portage area. From what I heard it's not the greatest but not the worst area either. I'll definitely keep you guys posted and hopefully you guys can help me make the best first investment possible!

Thanks!

I am new to bigger pockets my name is Eric and I am looking to buy my first property! I am interested in buy and hold but also flipping homes as well. What would be best for me to start out with first? I am leaning towards buying a house that me and wife can live in for a year or so and rent that out once we have done updating around the house but not sure if that's the best idea! If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hello everyone!

My name is Eric Maynez and I'm new to Bigger Pockets! I am very interested in buying and holding property and also Flipping homes. I am currently looking for my first home with my wife here in the Kalamazoo or Portage area! If there is any information about the area that you guys know about definitely let me know. Not sure which is the best way to start out whether I should live in my first property for a year or so and then turn around and rent it out or if I should try and do a flip first? All the help and advice is appreciated! 

Thanks!
