hello everyone, my original real estate investing plan was to buy several multifamily homes and house hack. but ive heard where i really want to move to, (south carolina) that state is not the best for MFH investing. what are the best type of real estate investing strategies in south carolina? i would be purchasing the property with an FHA loan. and im also looking for solid cashflow + long term holding

Hello everyone, i would like to move to FL from NYC for a more affordable place to purchase my first primary residence using an FHA loan. Ideally a duplex or multifamily 2-4 units. I also plan to use this first property as a long term hold in my investment portfolio once i move out after a year and continue the process with other properties in the same market. What cities in florida do you think would be the best for this vision? looking for some decent cashflow.

Hello everyone, I would like to have a FHA loan for my first investment property and put down 3.5% as down payment. even though I don't have a two year work history, I have 6 months of great bank statements. Making 10k a month and I also have 100k cash and a credit score off 755-780. Would I still be able to have a chance of getting approved? Also would they want me to put more down since I have huge cash reserves? any advice or info would be great!

Hello everyone, I'm 20 years old looking to buy my first investment property. I'm interested in house hacking in a multifamily home preferably 2-4 units. My main goal is cash flow with the long term vision of holding and eventually moving out of that property and accumulating more rentals in the same market. What cities would you guys say is the best for this goal? I also plan to use an FHA loan for the 3.5% down payment. Any advice and recommendations would be great! I do have some personal areas of interest such as north carolina, south carolina, and florida. Would these be good choices for my investment strategy?

Nyc/ New York agents are you guys cold calling homeowners? The NYSAR says it’s still prohibited but what are the consequences for calling? That was going to be my main prospecting source :(

@Natalie Schanne also it seems like you got a really good deal. How were you how to get a low purchase price?

@Natalie Schanne thank you so much this was really helpful. I’m actually only 17 and live in NYC. So I don’t think I would be able to purchase a decent investment over here since prices here are wayyy out of my reach. That is why I was looking to move to NJ and find a duplex to house hack. I would also prepare to have a job secured before I move there so I have income to pay my expenses before I get a tenant in the property.
