It is a TON of work but you only need 1 to 2 deals per year to live the good life.

I’m trying to familiarize myself with the area more thoroughly.it seems to have a stable increase in prices.Since I plan to live in the property initially, breaking even in the first year is my main goal. (5% down; PMI removed with renovation)However, I’m also wondering if it’s feasible to have some cash flow from such rentals, or if the risk of vacancy is high in this market.Any guidance or pointers from those experienced in this area would be greatly appreciated!

Houston's got a lively mid-term rental scene, great for folks staying a few months.

Hey Jack,I'm currently living in R.I and I grew up in MA.

Quote from @Ericka Parrott: Hi Dylan, I live here in Atlanta.

I have found that going that extra mile, like the couch covers etc and making sure the person with the disability has the easiest time visiting our place.As someone with a disability (I have a degenerative neurological disorder) and use a cane, I like to make sure folks with similar issues have a good time.

I also never lived east of 33rd Ave at that time. 

I truly appreciate you sharing these takeaways—it’s clear you’ve not only thought this through but lived it.I took some time to explore your Linktree, Instagram, and the Elevate CIG website—truly impressive work!

I am looked at by the loan officer as living in a situation rent free. 3.

A good way into it may be doing a house hack or live and flip then pulling the equity out in a refinance.Tons of ways to make money in this game!
