@Matt RollinsSince your goal is to replace your W2 income through real estate within 10 years, starting with a house hack is a smart move, but Utah’s high prices may make it challenging to cash flow.

Purchase price: $425,000 Cash invested: $5,000 ell after just 6 months of owning.

Purchase price: $115 Cash invested: $17,000 This is my first fix and flip.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – and they often select the first PMC they call!

Where we can see a huge opportunity is in the flood damaged properties that are selling at fractions of the retail prices.

Jung,Welcome to the BP forum its a great time to start as mortgage rates fall and home prices still priced well in many states.

I'd definitely get an average priced property (something that is a starter home) in a good area. 

Prices are high, regulations favor tenants, and finding deals that truly pencil out can feel like looking for a needle in a haystack.

We managed over half of the purchase price in cash and then the remainder was held as a 3 year seller's note.

Purchase price: $425,000 Cash invested: $5,000 Helped my past client out of a difficult situation.
