Craig Curelop's "House Hacking Strategy" and Brandon Turner's "The Multifamily Millionaire" offer strategies for owner-occupied investments.Good luck!

I have nonetheless interviewed for work and just signed an offer in Greenville SC.

I know nothing about the above firm you mention, but a quick look on their website shows they are likely offering you DSCR, so just general things to look out for in that world. 

I’m making a few assumptions: 1) at least some buyers and sellers will accept much less agent handholding than commonly assumed, 2) the primary value that agents add is a) pricing guidance and b) advising clients on offers and counter-offers, and 3) there’s no truly compelling reason why North America has the highest average commissions in the rich world.

Again they only signed the one year lease back in 2017 and have opted to keep month to month after offering a lease at each of the two rent increase intervals. 

I really appreciate the offer and I am sure I will have plenty of questions in the near future.
