I will be working remotely which means I have the opportunity to live at home with my parents and focus my income on building a real estate portfolio.1.

I met a future business partner at a live auction although it didn't work out.

TRA is for people that are homeless and living in a shelter.

I live far west of Knoxville near Crossville, TN so bonus points if you live near me.

@Amir Castillo Hello development is what I do for a living.

I live in SoCal -- I would prefer an even closer market but not really sure which other market would make sense?

@Shawn Blake figure out what each of the units would rent for and then compare to your PITI payment.Ignore the fact that you are living in on of the units for the analysis.If you can STR one or two of the bedrooms in the unit you live in, it will add to your revenue.

I finally received a demand letter from a "nonprofit attorney" representing the tenant, claiming that the tenant was living in uninhabitable conditions—typical for a non-paying tenant, I guess—and now she wants to "renegotiate" the rent and keep living in the same space.She has been filing complaints with various government departments, but all the cases were minor and have been closed.

HI Blake,You can always start off by house hacking meaning you live in one UNIT or ROOM and renting out the other vacant units/rooms to offset your monthly mortgage payment.There are several ways to run and make sure you are maximizing your rental income while keeping your living expense as low as possible.

It's a challenging "job" and so worth it.My sister lives in Charlotte near Carrowinds.
