You know those signs that say "we buy houses for cash" call them and say you are investor looking to buy a flip. 

My wife and I got a duplex downtown and are house hacking one unit. 

Attend open houses to understand market trends.

Im also interested in starting to invest in housing whether that be flipping, BRRR, etcMy wife, 54, is newly positioned social worker and climbing to what she feels is her max with clients.

We would also have to close on the house first before being able to open a business account, correct?

I'm from Leesburg, and I can tell you—multi-family is a solid choice (piggybacking the previous comments which I agree 💯), especially with that live-in/rent-out, house hack strategy.

I have my primary property which is a single-family house that I house hack.

I checked out that house.

I kept thinking it would get easier and less nervy as I bought more houses.
