All of them have enjoyed a high degree of success in their chosen market.

I'm debating on whether to do one of the following options, 1) House hack: Potentially buy a 2-4 unit so I can live in one and rent out the other ones.2) House Flip: Find a fixer upper so I can restore and sell.3) Buy an invesment property out of stateMy short/long term goal is to be a real state investor/developer with various rental properties (Mainly for housing), therefore, I'm aware that the first deal must be chosen carefully.What does the BP community recommend? 

It is good to know that you have chosen this career.

In my opinion, and I could be wrong, not only is the property expected to increase in value, but even if I utilize a HELOC to purchase additional investment properties, the rent roles will still be able to cover all expensesAs I mentioned in my post, if only I learned about BP sooner, I may have chosen a different property to invest in.

I understand that to mean you've chosen not to report it.

The path I've chosen will no doubt lengthen the time in which I will again become a healthy loan candidate.Some of my thoughts during the decision making process: A move was inevitable.

An expert you are not sir not by any means or you would have chosen your words with more wisdom.

For instance in Washington state they seem to have really chosen dumpy depressed areas which will be a challenge ti take advantage of; while here in neighboring Oregon they have designated some very mixed areas that seem to provide some real juicy opportunities for tax advantages.

This way, you can bump up the value of the property so you're stacking more than $425/mo by next year while still building credit (if you've chosen this route of purchase), *and* cash flowing for a spell.

@Scott Marshall I used to base the name of the LLC on the property it was meant to contain.However I found over time, that I sometimes needed an LLC for a different purpose, and then I started to wish I'd chosen more generic names.
