Hello BP! My question is in regards to house hacking. I’m looking at acquiring a property in Oceanside, rather than live in an apartment. I was thinking I could go apply for an FHA loan and put 3.5% down on a duplex, and rent the other side out so that way I could live for cheap, or possibly even make a little money every month. My questions are... what is the nitty gritty? What should I be looking for numbers wise? And what are my chances of getting approved for an FHA loan with decent credit?

Hello BP! Does anybody know if any REI meet ups are happening any time soon? I’m looking to network, and would love to meet like minded investors in my area. I currently am active in the Irvine, Fullerton, and Mission Viejo areas. For those of you looking to network as well, please feel let me know by responding or sending me a PM so that we can meet up!

Thank you Brandon!

Thank you Dan and Ali for the advice! I appreciate the words of encouragement.

Hey Zach! I’m looking at both. Just trying to get my foot in the door to closing that first deal, and then create momentum after that.
