I'm currently house hacking a property in Raeford and plan on renting it out.

I am currently in debt a total of about $75,000 and they don't tell you that you should really have funds for the cost of the program and at LEAST 9-12 months because it could be that long for a deal to be closed.

My name is James and I'm currently living in Lorton, Virginia.

Purchase price: $380,000 Cash invested: $19,648 Sale price: $485,000 Not really a portfolio investment as it currently my personal residence, but I'd still consider it an investment.

Currently, I am renting a place from a very good friend at below market rent in a very small town.

We changed the batteries 5 months ago and the battery level is currently at 93%.

Cashing out the equity on your current property is just another means of borrowing.

I don't have a whole lot to put down but I do now make six figures in my current career and have extra money to start saving each month for whatever expense may come about.

I currently have a 2 bedroom and the tenant moving in 8/1 does not need the 3rd bedroom.  

While we've done extensive research, we understand that nothing compares to the real-life experience of owning property and being landlords.Here's our situation: we currently live in a duplex and are considering buying it from our landlord.
