I'll be house hacking (typical), but will be renovating the first floor unit and finishing the basement into an owner's unit that will need to support me hosting small donor development and community building events, as I am active in the Baltimore non-profit scene in my spare time.

I'm 19, I'm also trying to build capital to purchase rentals or BRRRR's, I also invest all of my spare time studying and reading, learning, so I can definitely identify with you. 

It is my primary place of residence and the only property I have.I’m planning on renting out 1 of my spare rooms to a close friend.

It is a lovely thing to see an inch of dust on it, that means that the market is doing well this year.Nowadays (in this business) the process is much more compact and less detailed but we still look at it. 

My name is Andrew and am a freelance writer in my spare time.I am doing an article on the best real estate agent slogans/taglines and am looking for 50 or so agents to submit one from their company along with a headshot and a 1-2 sentence recap about why your company or business fits the slogan. 

I am trying to read and watch all the videos I can in my spare time.

If you have a bunch of spare cash floating around, I recommend investing it.

Hi @Taylor Espich I'm in Indy, started with living in a SFH and renting out spare rooms and now focusing on small multifamily.

Turnovers are expensive.So, if you look back after 10 years and you only had 2 turnovers vs 4 turnovers because you charged 5% under market rate rents you will be far better off financially, not to mention in terms of the qualitative aspects of owning a rental.I will spare you the really complicated explanation, but assume a turnover will cost you $7000 including vacancy costs.4 turnovers will cost you $28,000 over 10 years.2 turnovers will cost you $14,000 over 10 years—and your 5% rent reduction will cost you $12,000.$12,000 + $14,000 = $26,000 over 10 years.There are further auxiliary benefits as well.

With a decent w2, you can get a loan to buy a house to live in where you can rent out spare bedrooms like I did at 25.
