Done multifamily, SFR, STRs... and finally found the niche that I love the most and believe has the most potential for decades to come.

I'm in the market as well.

Typo by the OP.  

You know how to get a hold of me in the future and I'm always happy to help however I can.  

That area in PA can also work for STR and MTR so if you buy a 4-unit, you have the option of diversifying the asset inside of itself by doing 2 LTR, 1 STR, and 1 MTR if you wanted to give yourself some options.

I usually advise folks moving to a new area to rent for awhile to get the lay of the land.

Getting a FincenID makes it easy if you have more than one or expect future updates. 

Or do you plan on giving them the $1,500?  

The mortgage guy told me the other house would be treated as an ADU and give me no real value towards the value of my future mortgage.Not sure if that helps much?

Built porch floor, wheelchair ramp for the future maybe.
