Right, @Karla Garcia but the trick in rehabbing is that you may think you know what needs to be done and how much it's going to cost until you start the process and then you knock down a wall and realize the whole house needs to be gutted!

@Cyndi Lees the thing that catches my eye in your post is that it would require quite a bit of work to get it started as a rental.

Originally this started as a house hack I have recently moved out and it is now a 2 unit with one half being furnished rental.

I’ve been coaching new investors for a while and many lack funds to get started but find both the lack of knowledge, experience, and funds, often derails them. 

I just started off in the market searching for knowledge, I would appreciate if you can give me some advices, thank you! 

It's no guarantee but it's a good place to start.

I started house hacking in the San Diego area.

Depending on your states statutes and because they are on a month to month, give the proper notification that xxxx change will take affect starting 30,60,90 days from now. 

Make the start date of the lease contingent and effective upon closing. 

Start with the end in mind --- what would be the investor's exit strategy for this home?
