@Marc Anthony MacielIf you're diving into house hacking and multifamily investing in Southern California, you’ll want to focus on markets like Riverside, San Bernardino, Ontario, and Long Beach—areas with strong rental demand and solid appreciation potential.

I invest primarily in Pittsburgh and if you asked me I'd probably try to talk you OUT of investing here unless you're willing to follow the steps I outlined about getting situated

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

This would allow you to sell a property you had purchased with the intent of holding for productive investment use. 

I also usually compound the return by reinvesting my payments, so the present 12% fund effectively returns 14.38% which is pretty awesome.  

Current goal is focused on growing a portfolio and reinvesting cash flows.

In other words, I think we will probably have to be on the hunt for a very good deal or a very distressed property, and will not be investing in million-dollar multifamily properties... yet!

both have their place as investments, but leveraged RE appreciation historically has whooped unleveraged stock growth (due to the leverage, historically stock has done slightly better than unleveraged RE nationally).  

So if you have more than a $786k NET GAIN (not cash, not equity, GAIN) you’ll be able to take the full $500k tax free and then do an exchange on the remainder. 3) For that exchange to work you’ll have to buy an investment, not primary home that costs more than the remaining sales price, and reinvest all the “cash” beyond that $500k.
