My plan is to live in the duplex for the first year as required by my loan and then rent out.   

We have multiple rental properties and I do not plan to sell our primary.

I’m a new investor, and I’m planning to start with house hacking.

You need to personalize it first and foremost (send me a message if youd like to strategize, I help folks all the time) but also spend some time making sure you list is high quality and worth sending mail to.

My plan is to use FHA, 3.5% dp, seller covers closing costs. 

If you're $400/mo below market it seems like there's a decent incentive for you to spend some money to aggressively rehab and get top rent.

Outside of real estate, I enjoy spending quality time with family, working out, getting active outside and listening to Bigger Pockets :)Excited to learn and connect with you all!

From their credit report, it appears they are making regular payments and haven't been late with any payments on anything in several years, so perhaps they just put their wedding on the cards or something and planned to pay it off, but I don't know.

I don't want to spend hours on hours of listening to podcasts, picking up nuggets...and lots of fluff.  

How do you plan on purchasing and in what area?
