-22 years old-$50,000 pre tax income from business this year-80k in savings-30k in investments-pre approved for $350,000 (had to use parents as co-signers because I started business 2 years ago and didn’t make much first year)Looking to get into first house by house hacking a 4 bed 2 bath renting out 3 rooms.

rates are high, prices are high, good PMs and contractors are booked up and busy, and it's very tough to find good deals. 

To support my seller and seize a valuable opportunity, my business partner and I decided to purchase the property ourselves.

Flipping is a production business.

Quote from @Kody Smith: without getting too deep into my finances, what my strategy is...1. take loans to buy properties (leverage)2. fix/flip for day to day cash flow income3. use some of the fix/flip income to buy consistent cash flow through:- business acquisition, - commercial properties (MF and store fronts),I have no intention of doing ALL of the management myself, I will hire management as needed (medium term goal)my expected core role is money provider, evaluating the numbers, making decisions, and connecting with investors, wholesalers, lenders, contractors, and property owners.while I am just on step 2 of the journey, I am looking toward step 3 to stabilize, and not worry about if house prices drop mid project or not (or not worry as much) So to be fair this is more about obtaining and growing a real estate business not simply buying rentals for cashflow.

- The market is in a little bit of a lull right now (buyers market), its a great time to buy, but slower time to sell (my primary business is flipping houses) I can supplement my flipping business by providing project management services/consulting, helping investors find discounted properties, etc. etc.

I don't have any specifics but as someone who is into tech, accounting/finance, and a consultant to grow businesses.

And even if I do not get into the renting business I can make some profit if I decide to sell the property at some point.

It would for sure have to be a higher hourly rate than a typical W2 job however as agents are 1099 contractors and there are expenses associated with maintaining our licenses and operating our businesses that usually come out of our commissions.
