I understand why you look at schools and crime but you need to focus more the quality of tenants and the ability to keep a property rented longer.

I personally learned by trial and error as you suggested, but it took years to get any traction and I could have definitely been way ahead if I have leveraged the ability to learn from others who had successfully made it before me.

Assess your ability to secure financing within the given timeframe and whether it aligns with your investment strategy.

Also Zelle doesn't allow for the ability to individually enable/disable a tenant in the system.Money orders require driving over to pick up, or the tenant sending them late and then the late fee issue is still there. 

But one undeniable benefit of house-hacking is to ability to reduce w2 taxes for primary residence with interest rate payments.
