If you were looking to buy a fixer upper etc..

Am I overall lowering my expenses if I buy a two-flat and rent out one unit?   

We are looking to do long-term rentals for a buy-and-hold strategy, starting to build up our portfolio and gain momentum. 

It’s clear that there’s an incredible wealth of knowledge and experience here, and I’m excited to continue learning and growing with this community.I’m looking to connect with members who are open to mentoring or collaborating on real estate deals, particularly in buy-and-hold strategies for single-family or multi-family properties.

If I was starting from scratch, I would buy a duplex/triplex/quadplex, live in the crappiest unit and rent the others out.

If anything just buy motivating buyer lists or VA until you build your own buyers list.

I’ve been exploring buy and hold opportunities in my area, and I recently came across a situation I’d like some advice on.I’ve come across a property in my area that I’m very interested in, but I want to make sure I approach the situation the right way.

I am starting real estate school soon to get my license but here in Florida I was told I can buy as an investor without. 

So, they could potentially buy another house later on.

We all assume this isn’t a house you’d buy with your own money.
