.: To sell every rental I own in Maryland and redeploy my capital in a state that doesn't let tenants live rent free in houses they destroyed for a year. 

I recently just added her to my credit so she can get a little boost in her score to help more with the process and yes with the low down payment I don't expect to live rent free but one can dream for now all I care about is owning the property cashflow will come later.

This is clearly extortion on their part because they know they can live rent-free without being evicted for months and will only leave for $15k.

@Joshua Morency I started out by househacking a 3 bedroom rental allowing me to basically live rent free for a few years while I saved up enough money to buy a condo. 

Went to a community College for diploma, then worked, interned and got hired in her field of study before graduating college with a bachelor's last month with no debts in a growing field with high demand and six figure yearly salary.She bought a primary residence 2020 with 3% down and house hacked, which allowed her to live rent free for 2 years while tenants paid down the loan.

Hello Kelly, House hacking is alive and well and yes depending on what market you are in it will be challenging to acquire something that will allow you to live rent free.

I am a MD transplant living in Leesburg, VA and am at the beginning of my journey into real estate investing.

You’ll live rent-free in one unit while the tenants cover the mortgage.Here’s the play: do it for 12 months, then repeat each year for 3 years.

I also meet alot of people in my line(s) of work and this seems to check out in my conversations with them, this includes natives, recent transplants, old transplants, every age group and race.

You get to have renters pay off your mortgage and live rent free in most cases.
