@Edreco AmosHello,I reside in Miami and I do agree with everyone else.

-how many bathrooms per resident have you found to be successful?

You could house hack and use the other portion to AirBnb as then you meet the primary residence requirement in B.C.

I have lived in Austin for almost 20 years where I own one house that has been my primary residence for four years now. 

@Placeholder PlaceholderOne word of caution I would advise: If a community or local government is enacting restrictions and also regularly enforcing them, then its often a reflection of the local community sentiment which increases the chance of a neighborhood or nearby resident calling you in if they think you may be running an STR.

Quote from @Lamier Guzman: @Jaycee Greene I was thinking Hampton or Virginia Beach, leaning more into Hampton honestly for the duplex's but after my military contract and my 1 year of residing in the duplex is complete I plan on renting both units and moving to Florida or Texas to purchase SFH's and BRRRR them.

I am curious as to if anyone is aware of any first time home buyers programs for buying the first Primary Residence.

For the $525K property, with the low mortgage rate(you will probably never get a such low rate), it might make sense to hold onto it for now, especially if you can still sell it as a primary residence within the next three years and avoid capital gains taxes.

I'm a passive investor and these properties are in a different state than I reside in so I'm not there in person often. 

Hi Jasmine-Congratulations on being ready to turn your primary residence into a rental.Your question is should you use a property manager or self-manage your property.If there is enough positive cashflow or you can afford to pay a property manager, I always recommend doing so for the following reasons:1.
