It's going to be challenging to find another house hack with as low of a monthly payment as you currently have, given the low interest rate.

@Shaun OrtizEvaluating distressed properties remotely can be a little challenging but it's doable with the right tools.

It's always a little more challenging investing in out of state (I invested out of state for 15+ years) but you can still be successful doing it. 

Challenges?

While living with tenants can pose challenges like privacy concerns and tenant relations, clear boundaries, professional management, and proper tenant screening will help you succeed.

Challenge is where is their motivation to properly screen applicants and get rid of nonpayers?

Its been a wild ride though doing all this through massive inflation and supply chain issue and Covid..  

They barely lasted in California (they are based on London).The challenge is (1) you are assuming all listings have open houses and (2) there are a lot of moving parts that can happen behind the scenes.

I hope this improves.S8 can be a challenge.

I’m also concerned about challenges like dealing with difficult tenants and navigating new taxes.
