Hello, my name is Kyle Hardie and I live in Fairmont MN. 

Years ago I had posted about Shared living.

The alternative is to go with a single-family home, live in it for about 1.5 years, and then purchase another home while renting out the first one.

Now the living room and 2 bedrooms that just had new flooring put in them 8 months ago are ruined from the leaking water from the HVAC and have to be replaced again.

While Pace Morby seems to know his stuff, he puts out incredibly long videos and I didn't have time to sort through all that fluff & didn't want to pay 8k to be in his course. 

For scaling your portfolio, consider house hacking another multi-family property to minimize living expenses while building equity.

This has been my experience and I live in an ultra-competitive market.

I'd recommend working with a good strong property manager that lives in that area that can check on them.

and trailer stolen, workshop robbed 3 times, business bank account hacked and Not Insured (w a bank name like C#@$e), hip replacement, Botched oral surgery for sinus cyst 3 times, So Far, that caused an infection that kept me from working most of 2024 and just now recovering.SO Fire Sale February for me But I’m too broke to finish a punchlist to keep rental certificate open on top of living expenses and cover unexpected bills.Seeking micro bridge loan in the $5-10k range to be repaid at sale of house.I have another small single family paid off and rents for $950 as well.Any advice or suggestions for resources Greatly Appreciated 

A few other things I'm considering;- I don't need the extra cash flow to live and am just approaching it to remove the high mortgage interest, but also hedge risk that the current stocks might tank in a few years.- Could take all current cash flow and a few thousand a year to pay off the property in 5-10 years.- Hold for a bit and 1031 into something else but am fairly confident there is not much appreciation to come on this property.
