Start with your primary residence if you are currently renting.You can buy a duplex with only 3.5% FHA Loan and rent out the other side while you continue to learn about real estate investing.

Cities like Miami, Tampa, and Orlando offer diverse opportunities, from luxury properties to short-term rentals.While demand peaks during winter, when northern residents flock south, the state experiences fewer slowdowns in the real estate cycle.

We have >$2m in debt spread across the investment properties and our primary residence.

In Denver where I invest it's actually a PLUS to not have the other unit considered separate because permits are only allowed for STR if you're renting out your primary residence and I know many folks who put a locking door on part of their home and have a separate external entrance to that part of the house, and rent it out as an AirBNB without it being considered an additional unit by the city.

I am moving into a bigger home for me and my family and have decided to keep our current residence as a rental.
