There is less room for error.

From the beginning, I rented out 3 of the 4 rooms while living in the remaining room.

HI Kenneth,You can always start off by house hacking meaning you live in one UNIT or ROOM and renting out the other vacant units/rooms to offset your monthly mortgage payment.There are several ways to run and make sure you are maximizing your rental income while keeping your living expense as low as possible.

Seems pretty easy to setup.You could add a feature to a spare room or game room or whatever with little work.

It will be hard to make it work (you might need to room share, rent by the room and otherwise get creative) but it’s also more finacially rewarding than other cities.,    The other thing is you should invest in your own backyard.

We moved to the Mt Juliet area in 2021 and rented out one of our rooms to travel nurses.

However the bulk of my real estate investing has been in the MTR space, and actually Mid to Long term, Rent By The Room.

@Kevin Quach, most of my business is acquiring rent-by-the-room investments.
