One of my goals this year was to take actionable steps into jump starting my real estate journey, so here I am, taking that first step.A little about me: I'm a San Antonio native that lived out of state for a couple of years but has migrated back home.

Quote from @Nilusha Jayasinghe: Hey all, I'm a smalltime investor currently living in a flat of a Chicago 2-flat while renting the other out, and also have a SFH rental in OH. 

This residence features 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, encompassing approximately 1,700 square feet of living space.

I live in the Metro Atlanta area (near Gwinnett, Walton, and Rockdale counties) and am open to opportunities in other areas as well.I’m just starting my real estate investing journey with a focus on wholesaling.

(They did multiple inspections, also came for several full afternoons to just poke around the house while we were living there.) 

Is this a LT residential interest or more like a shared sober house living situation?

It's actually harder if you are currently living in the property, want to cash out, and then have it as a rental as you haven't proven to the bank that the property will cash flow $600 a month on top of the NEW mortgage costs. 1.

That means the government has been borrowing my $600k (instead of $1.2M because I don’t live in California.) interest free for more than 10 years.

Was it for a place to live for work before they found a permanent location or was it used for someone wanting to stay in the area as a 2nd home for the winter months?

Where I live, we still have a severe shortage of homes--median time on market is still 7 days and it would likely be shorter if not for delayed negations being the norm.
