My brother-in-law, who owns a landscaping company in Lee’s Summit, works with a lot of local builders and has been a huge help.

I'd love to connect with you and be a part of your network!

All the best to you during your last semester.Househacking is one of the most common routes for new investors in NY.For best returns, I'd recommend focusing on South and Southeast Queens, Central and Southeast Brooklyn, and the Bronx.There are parts of the suburbs (Westchester and Long Island) that have househack opportunities but the property taxes are higher and the commute time to NYC is longer.Abel

Do you have a specific area of Chicago where you would like to live? 

Remember, the notion of amassing wealth without investing is a dangerous myth perpetuated by self-proclaimed experts.

@Javier Esquivel Hi Javier, this has all of the components of a good flip.

.: I have a main company, that owns a bunch of LLCs, each LLC holds a single real estate asset. 1 of the LLC also acts as a management company for the entire portfolio.Now it creates a problems that with each LLC, I need to file a tax return each year. and so far I am doing them by excel copying numbers from bank statement, which is a nightmare.Quickbook online charges $24 each month in Canada, which really adds up with the number of holding LLCs. and I don't feel like what I require from it justify the cost.

We just want to get out of the deal, do we have a way out?

To offset costs, I’m planning to buy a duplex and pursue a house-hacking strategy:1.Rent out one unit as a long-term rental.2.Live in the other unit and rent out the bedrooms as short-term rentals (STRs) through a furnished rental approach.Before diving in, I have a couple of questions:1.Can I use a property for both short-term and long-term rentals?

Can you afford to have zero possibility of a tenant for those months that you don't have it listed?
