Investors tend to buy more often then regular home buyers BUT if your area the investor price point is low you would have to do a crap ton of sales to be close to regular sales.In commercial if you love working with numbers you can usually just work weekdays during the daytime and no weekends.

I'm sure the BP community would love to be continually updated as well on your progress.

Hi @Abigail King - Love that you are coming up to Chicago for some meetups. 

Have you looked into Rhode Island? 

Loving the journey so far and happy to share ideas!

Id love to connect and get you more info on the meetups!

Specifically, I’d love to hear about best practices for managing shared spaces, screening tenants, and setting up house rules.Additionally, I plan to split the utilities among the tenants—any advice on how to handle this efficiently would be greatly appreciated!

Love his community. 

This doesn’t include any raises or bonuses.No kids yet, but we plan to have them down the line.Both of our credit scores are over 800, and we have no debt.The plan:I know sellers don’t always love FHA loans, and they can be tough to get approved for, but I’d like to use one to make this work.

I also love the fact that I can help them build credit by reporting their rent to credit agencies.
