If you're considering starting with a duplex using a VA loan, that's a great strategy, especially for house hacking.

Start by leveraging your skills to identify undervalued properties, perform cost-efficient renovations, and build sweat equity.

This is where I started as well, and then about 5 years later I was able to leave my W2.

That guy started his build 6 months ago and has had it listed since day one.

We are looking into the possibility of starting out OOS investing in Indianapolis.

I’ve househacked a handful of properties and it’s truly the best way to get started!

This will just turn into a ventfest with everyone complaining about how they can’t find good cleaners, Handymen, Plumbers, roofers, lawncare, snow plow, electricians, etc etc etc.And everyone complaining how they had to fire their last cleaners because cleaning crew members got in a huge fight in the front yard and started throwing things at each other…And how they had to fire the cleaners before that because they showed up drunk…And how they had to fire the cleaners before that because they never even showed up…

It sounds like you are just getting started."

Other introverts will feel comfortable with you and that could actually help your journey......more important qualities are honesty, integrity and being a harder worker than others.Just be yourself and go get started.

It's never too late to start investing @Raul Velazquez!
