Hi Jacob,

Thank you so much for your reply. Since this is our first investment, we are looking to use just $270K cash (no loans). Hence why it’s so difficult! Haha. Part of me wonders if it would be easier to buy land, put a tiny house on top, and rent it out.

I’ll look into Kauai. Thank you :-)

Hi everyone! I’ve been browsing through different threads on here and thought it might be worth posting my own (to get your expertise).

My partner and I have $270k in cash and are looking to invest (for the first time) in a rental property. We want it to be located somewhere that we could live in a few months per year.

We are super interested in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, or Hawaii… (and I know you’re probably laughing right now because all of those places are well over $270k). Would any of you have advice for how we could get a property in those places with this budget? Or would you suggest another beach town that people want to vacation at/would be interested in renting an Airbnb at?

Thanks in advance for your help!
