We had to bring the 1925 house to 2023 code which involved un-installing 26 windows that were already nicely installed (in appearance) in the house, reframing them to 2023 standards (at the time) which also involved strapping the bottom of the wood framing with metal straps (mind you this all after we had already completed the inside renovation).  

I’m starting off wanting to get into a primary residence that I plan to house hack and then figure out the next move into investment properties but that’s down the roadwith all that said, are there other ways that im not thinking of to 1.

I plan to purchase a primary residence, multi-family home (2-5 units, 'house-hack'). 

You'll typically need to set up your account and get familiar with the process of working with the local housing authority.

Get a house in a great neighborhood during the summer 2025 and sell my primary in spring 2026.

We had a house on the Deschutes River in the subdivision we were doing a spec new construction house in.

Is it like you sold your house and don’t have to pay for the profit?

Happy to discuss this further on what might make the most sense for your end goal.If you are renting right now and starting your path in real estate investing, as said above, I really do like the house hacking strategy for your situation.

The more information that you have out there the easier it is for people to find you, if you want them to find you.I almost everyday wear my "Rick Buys Houses" shirts with my phone number on it. 

If I sell one house per year, it will pay for itself.
