By the time yup decide to split you may already be in a bad position.

@Cory Mosby The problems with this is what if you get it running successfully and then the owner see that this will work and decides not to renew your lease and take it over, or jack up your rent?

Hello BP Community,My husband and I had decided to move from NY to Miami/Fort Lauderdale Area in December 2018 for a fresh start.

Hi I’m Alex and have decided to become a financial freedom finder as all of you are indeed doing.

I decided to finally buckle down to do this part time from extra income and to build up before I decide to do it full-time.Any suggestions on which state, on-line courses and/or brokers for this new journey?

Read "Rich Dad Poor Dad" and working my way through "Cashflow Quadrant" and the other books by Brandon are sitting in my queue.Currently struggling with deciding on an area to invest in, already decided to invest in b or c class, not sure about duplex or SFH yet.

Once I realized how much money and time it was going to take to completed the lengthy list of to-do's that piled up, I decided it was time to switch strategies and turn this into a house hack.

@Evan Tan Congrats on deciding to start investing in RE early in life!

After a little time to relax and enjoy our new house, we decided to begin real estate investing.

Congrats you are off to a great start.The multi-family units will give you significantly better cash-flow than SFRs in the bay area if you decide to look locally.
