I am currently trying to break my analysis paralysis. 

I don't hold to the "analysis paralyis" theory that if you're not buying something (LTR or STR), you're doing something wrong.  

At this stage, I am interested in house hacking, short-term rentals, and residential assisted living (though I hope to continue to learn more about other opportunities as well).I appreciate this community and the opportunity to learn from others.
