In terms of the overall real estate market for 2025, I believe it will continue to remain very strong.

I also know that BP hosted the RentRedi CEO on their podcast I believe, so that's another software i'm looking into.  

Another question I had however is, when/if you ever decide to sell, do you believe they are harder to sell due to it basically having to sell to another investor looking for this and not someone looking for full time living space?

I'm starting to believe that I could be saving some money by doing it that way.

But I genuinely believe that if you’re just getting started, house hacking is the better option.

Unfortunately, Texas has a law prohibiting HELOCs on rental properties and I believe they also have a 70-75% max total loans allowed on the property which cuts into the equity I've built and would only allow for me to access 30K which would make it less appealing to go through the process for only 30K.

I believe you have to make that your primary residence for at least two years before moving to the next one. 

I believe this situation was handled in a way congruent with BiggerPockets values and ethos - information was discovered, we gave the user in question an opportunity to respond publicly to the allegations, other members of the community chimed in to make comments and ask questions of their own, I made the decision to close the post because I believe many of the top viewpoints were discussed and I didn't want it to turn into shameless trolling with no additional value, that whole thread remains up for community members to view into the future for transparency and anyone who reads it can form their own opinions with the information presented.

I can’t believe you found a renter with a lawnmower and the desire to mow.

I personally wish we skipped the drain pan install since I believe newer washers have sensors inside.
