Hi @Leonard La Rocca III welcome to BPWith a goal to house hack your option will be much better and tremendously more favorable.1. $50k gets you the house but leaves you very little room for value add. 

Your options at that point would be tremendous given the savings and compounding.  

so there is still a tremendous, tremendous demand component even without the same population growth.

One of the constants that I still see from when I first started on BP in early 2016 is the willingness of experienced ( some on this very thread ) folks in different aspects of real estate to try and help newbies and others with advice and perspective.I think it really is a testament to the fact that even though the investing environment has undergone many changes over those years the willingness to continue to help others has not changed.It helped me tremendously when I had to crash course on small MF ownership and I am grateful to all who helped with posts that they didn't even know that I had read and learned from.And yes the search function remains fairly useless and unchanged in that regard since then to the detriment of us all.

If it works, the cashflow is tremendous.

I have seen a tremendous difference in terms of how my property performs now. 

As someone born and raised in Cleveland, I've witnessed the tremendous growth in Northeast Ohio firsthand.

Some of us pay a tremendous amount in taxes to the government and would like to pay a lot less.

I don’t feel the need to explain myself, or promote his program, but I will say that I have learned tremendously what would have been difficult for me in another community. 3k is nothing compared to other mastermind groups.

There is a tremendous amount of bad information being spread here, so be careful who you're taking advice from.  1.
