Hi Drake,You are in the right space to get started, so congrats on taking the first step.

I have been in property management for 20 years, almost 3 years ago I moved to Birmingham AL to start my investment journey.

That's the reason there are so many fourplexes and so few fiveplexes or even sixplexes.From what I gather, post offices and utility companies rarely care much about the permitting/zoning issues, so it probably wouldn't have been hard to get those set up.

@Madison SloanTo start house hacking, focus on saving for your down payment, researching target markets like Salt Lake City or North Idaho, and building a strong team of professionals, including an agent and lender.

I Offered it to them at 10% below market with him paying utilities. he wanted it, so I screened him to verify he can afford it.

As we continued to scale, we eventually added a positions to start taking some of my wife's responsibilities. 

👋It’s awesome that you’ve already started diving into the calculators and podcasts—those are great resources for anyone just getting started.Since you’ve had some rental experience already, I’d love to hear what you found most challenging about owning and selling that property back in 2017.

If you just hire the cheapest or first PMC you speak with and it turns into a bad experience, please don’t assume ALL PMC’s are bad and start trashing PMC’s in general.
