I am a business owner in another industry, and looking to get into purchasing properties at the county foreclosure auction website.

You can transform a space that you merely use for storage into a cash-flowing rental to subsidize your mortgage, your bills and other household expenses.My journey to house hackingIn Spring 2022, my neighbor mentioned he had started renting out the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) on his property on AirBNB.

This week mortgage applications hit a low not seen since 1995.One result: mortgage industry employment is down 20%.

So I think you’ll see minor appreciation in real estate across the next year or two… The industry average is 3 to 4%.  

@Travis WashingtonThere's an entire industry incentivized to make real estate seem really complicated.

For you to gain enough experience and talent to be able to rival a real GC would take you a decade.This is like when people want to get a RE license to save money doing flips....ain't gonna happenLike @Joel Forsythe said, this is a myth that perpetuates the industry.

The industry has to establish itself next door to standard construction in the neighborhood at the same price per square foot.

All of the instructors I had were great and Mike Brennan the owner and head instructor is super active in the industry on the regulatory side of things.

Getting your RE license would absolutely give you a leg up in this industry. 

I am looking at adding commercial industrial and additional residential to my portfolio we buy and hold.
