@Josue RamosI'm definitely bias, but people are still sleeping on Reno, NV. 

This is just my opinion as having no dogs in this particular fight.  

YOU DOGGED A BULLET THERE.

for example, buy a 2-unit, rent out 1 unit, and then rent all the bedrooms in the other unit to friends and sleep in the basement or on a couch.let's recapnot easy: house hacking in NYCeasy: buying sub 30K houses that will turn into money pits and won't advance your goals at all

sleep in the basement or on a couch. 

They are both looking for bird dogs. 

That experience taught me to always overestimate CapEx and vacancy buffers... it’s much easier to sleep at night when you’ve got those cushions in place.From what I’ve read in Bloomberg, these challenges aren’t unique, especially with rising rates.

Grow your network in your sleep. 

If you can maximize all 3, then you've also created a very wide lead funnel, which is less common in multifamily properties.Maximizing "pets" means you're removing carpet, allowing at least 2 pets including cats and larger dogs > 50 lbs, access to a fully fenced-in yard or walking distance to a dog park, leniency on breed restrictions (depends on insurance, your risk tolerance, due diligence with pets during inquiry phase), pet friendly furniture (e.g. faux leather couch, low pile rugs if at all), etc.

If the latter you may just be an independent “bird dog” for a wholesaler competing with everyone else.
