Hey BP family,I am new to real estate investing but would love some experts insights so I don't get burned on my first dealThis is the property: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/724-N-22nd-Ave-Bozeman-MT...My thoughts are my wife, 8 month old and I could live in Unit A for a year or two while we rent out Units B & C to help cover the mortgage payments until we build/buy a more desirable family ranch home with min 10+ acres which we've been looking for but have yet to find.My hesitation is I've never been a landlord and am reluctant to get in over my head with property problems while simultaneously growing an online business and being a new father.After some negotiation we counter offered 895k with a 2-1 rate buy down for 20k and the sellers have verbally accepted but since our offer expired we need to resubmit.

Happy to share my template with you, feel free to shoot me a message and I'll pass it along. 

Feel free to reach out with any other questions! 

Online resources, real estate forums, and local investor meetups can also provide valuable insights and practical advice from those who have firsthand experience with seller financing and flipping properties.

That you wisely build in the costs for replacement linens and towels (also offer black face towels), possibly don't use high-end top-down shades in the Bunk Room (although those black out shades match all the shades in the rest of the house and it's a high-end property), chalk can be brushed, semi-gloss on walls for easier clean-up... and yes, there are clear check-out directions to run the dishwasher provided via an online guest book, a physical guest book, and an email I send regarding check-out the day before they check-out.

What would you do if u had 20k in dept,and you really want to get in to a triplex or 4plex & house hack it with no money down in silicon Valley near San jose towards the northThank you guys so much for a the free knowledge.......

You can use your extra $1000 per month x 120 months, so 120k, to buy more property.Whether you snowball you portfolio or you let it grow and then go through a partial liquidation to pay off the rest, both get you to free and clear in the end. 

I didn't intend to try to scale until I heard so many people talk about becoming financially free (quitting W2 job).

I can find lots of options through online sources (Zillow, Redfin, Rentometer, etc.), but since none of these sites available to me show leased properties I'm having trouble finding good comps to list on the appraisal dispute form.

Feel free to DM me if you want a little help digging in on the numbers further.
