@Alex Hymanson  you should read the book...Storing Up Profits. 

. - The ultimate house hack, live in the small ADU unit and rent out the two levels of the main house on AirBnb in San Francisco (I would have thought STRs are oversaturated in S.F. but it worked for them and they stay fully booked).

I'll check out the book.

Another option if you're looking for something with higher yield than index funds, that's hands off, and will teach you a lot about real estate investing without having to do it yourself could be investing in syndications which is referred to in the book Jonathan recommended.

Depending on local regulations, you can mix up STR/MTR/LTR. 2) Get systems in place in those exact cities; 2 PMs preferably via NARPM, 2 high quality inspectors, and rotating book of handyman, 1 lawyer, and a credit union contact for leverage along with investor friendly nationwide lenders.

Then you can read a more in-depth book like The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner or The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing by Spencer Strauss.2.
