 Hi Roger, yes, the plan is to house hack.

Whether that's through house hacking or just another set of units I hold, I plan to purchase again this year. if there are tips on how to build a trusted network of people on here, I would welcome that.

Lots to be figured out in this deal but let's assume for now that it's priced right for a BRRRR or flip.My wife and I have been looking to move into a house hack in the area, and friend has just sold their house and has cash they're looking to invest in a flip.

I believe in putting in the work—1,000 hours of research, testing, and learning—before offering advice, and I’m excited to tap into the collective wisdom of this community to refine my approach.Here’s where my head is at: I’m considering strategies like short-term rentals (Airbnb) for higher cash flow, long-term rentals for steady income, or even creative options like house hacking or partnerships to stretch the funds further.

I’m starting off wanting to get into a primary residence that I plan to house hack and then figure out the next move into investment properties but that’s down the roadwith all that said, are there other ways that im not thinking of to 1.

I would recommend house hacking, it’s easiest way to get started.

The difference is that I would want move there and house hack.

Good on your friend for suggesting house hacking a duplex.
