Price point-wise, for a single-family home, it is around $115K to $135K.

If you buy a duplex and your "cost" per month is 750 (just using a number) but for you to rent or (even buy) a similar single family it would cost you 2000 a month then you are still 1250 a head every month! 

I accept them and mitigate the risk by (a) screening the animals, (b) having a solid set of rules that are quickly and fairly enforced, (c) regular inspections, especially for cat units, and (d) charging a monthly pet fee.Let's say I have five single-family homes.

With the current market been short on single family homes in our area we have made a strategic decision to pivot back to flipping a few properties. 

It's a great idea to put together a single document summarizing the financials remaining properties (which I manage remotely) and teach her about commercial leases.

Is this a single room rental or a 1-bedroom apartment? 

Mindful Real Estate Partners is our next act.We are investors, developers and syndicators specializing in single family and small multifamily.

The idea is to purchase a single-family residence where they would help cover the mortgage, or at least reduce my monthly payments.I’d love to hear from anyone who has experience with house hacking!

thx yea I mostly do class c single family in VA and NC.. a fair amount of section 8. thanks for the feedback 

Many find it’s entirely possible to balance both, especially if you start with smaller projects, like single-family rentals or "house hacking" (where you live in one unit and rent out others).
