I'm brand new to REI and I'm looking to house hack MF; probably a duplex.

Hey @Anthony Vargas JrCheck out this brand new Bigger Pockets book (releasing on Monday)!

After years of relative quiet, appliance-wise, we had to replace two refrigerators and a dishwasher in three different units.Both refrigerators, different brands, from different sources, arrived faulty.The first wouldn’t cool.

-Some quick-sellers use cheap hardware material only to maintain the outlook.This being said, you’ll have to do the rehab on your own so it may suit your personal branding.

Good evening all, I'm a brand new member!

Hi All,I am brand new to the bigger pockets community and real estate.

We need to list the purchase date, brand, model, serial number, the cost, the years it is depreciated, and the years of life left so the tenant knows what the charge will be.

It's a brand new home.

Most of the work is basically e-mails and web searching, sometimes you need a zoom or a call with a lawyer, servicer, realtor etc. and that can be done even with the time differences.  

@Andrew P.  1) as  2022 is almost  here -  consider  completing and filing the 2021 tax returns asap  and  consider having the  schedule E  for the  rental income  show as much of a   positive  net  income as possible  ...this   might  increase your tax  exposure for the year but if the  result  is  that you will be able to line up a  HELOC on your primary  property , it could be worth it 2) a  traditional  cash out  refinance  will  have the same  issue   of using the tax returns  for the  qualifying ratios  - the LTV  ( loan to  value ) for a OO triplex  isnt  very high 3) recent FED  announcement  - 3  seperate  .25%  increases   expected for  fed rate  in  2022  - this means  HELOC / prime rate will increase  by the same  amount when  these increases occur
