Quote from @Rory Darcy: Hi guys my name is rory, pretty new to this im an out of state investor residing in new york, looking to invest in wisconsin and illinois, currently looking to build my portfolio around multi family duplexes or single family residencies, would be great to connect with like minded investors or agents who can lend a hand.Rookie investors should not invest out of state.

Hey @Dalton Foote - I highly suggest  using a renovation loan and house hacking a multi-family if that is possible with your current life circumstances.The 203k and homestyle renovation loans are just amazing products and drastically help you reduce your risk, in my opinion, because you are able to leverage the cost of the entire renovation with such a low down payment loan.We work with a lot of clients who use these products in Chicago, and no matter what, in the long term, they gain great equity.If you aren't able to house hack - the process is essentially the same, but just with more money down with hard money or conventional construction loan.
