units you're in that boat, but for anyone out there, keep your head up.

Thanks Chris and Nathan, my plan is to have Atleast 1 LLC in each state wherever I have property and keep few properties in 1 LLC each state.

Keep it simple to start, then eventually take on leverage to amplify your winning strategy.

That’s great advice Taz, I’m currently working on saving enough money to get started, house hacking is hard for me at the moment because I just bought a house 2 years ago, I would have to sell my house(which is in a great neighborhood great location) and use that money to fund the duplex which isn’t totally out of the question, I would like to keep the house if possible but also would like to get real estate investing more.

Keep in mind taxes go up as do rents.

I’m also open to exploring short-term rentals, private lending, or passive investing in funds—anything that maximizes returns while keeping risk and time commitments manageable.For context, I’d consider leaving my job if this could become a full-time venture that surpasses my current compensation (low-mid six figures).

Quote from @John Underwood: Gas heat would require constant tank refilling and it would be very bad to run out in the winter.In my experience, if you have  325 or 500 g tank, you can top off in the fall and be good until spring.....Unless I guess you have a big house and are keeping it at 80d.... 

Is there enough parking for five vehicles?

I keep hearing that it's not the best investment right now because of the downturn after COVID.
