Ian, Dmitriy - thanks for the warm welcomes!  

@Ian SinclairYou can finance investment property in your retirement account but since IRS rules prohibit personal guarantee you can't use conventional financing, you must use non-recourse loan.

Not only am i an investor for over 15yrs but my background is in Industrial Organizational Psychology.

@Ian Russell, given your goal of low maintenance, I think I would aim for a newer building.

@Ian Walsh Thanks Ian!

@Ian Walsh your right, it's just when I see when sometimes people call into his show and ask hey I want to start a career in marketing he says no stay away from it.

@Ian ShinnickThank you Ian, I’ve also heard if you do not provide flood insurance and you have a property on a mortgage, the bank will automatically provide flood insurance at the rates they receive which are much lower I’ve heard and they just charge it to you, but I am very skeptical as to using that method because I do not know everything of it and how it will effect the relationship with the Lender.

I an a real estate agent in Olympia and would love to help you find your first house hack!

Hi @Ian Gilligan, I literally just went through this process.
