@Matthew Porcaro congrats bro🔥🔥.I did not to far from the same.House hacked a triplex with my lady, then she got a duplex that was house hacked and bought time we was done we was able to pull equity out of both and buy another rental and our dream home that we fixed up and have a lot of equity in (bought for 450k worth 850k now)That dream home allowed us to borrow against and put 20% down on our next rental and every year we plan on doing the same refinancing the rental we bought a year ago as a long term brrrr.Came to the reality that it’s really a marathon and not a race.
