Thank you for the advice James and Drew.

To overcome these, investors should focus on smaller properties, value-add opportunities, expand into secondary markets, leverage creative financing, partner for scale, monitor development trends, network aggressively, and use market data tools for tailored advice.

@Shannon Leckingeryou got great advice from @Travis Timmons.

However, I’d like to have a space of my own before living with others again (I plan to house hack again with my next property).I’m seeking advice on how to move forward, as I need to consider things like utilities, taxes, landlord/umbrella insurance, and managing the property, especially with someone renting my garage.Specifically, I’m curious about renting out individual rooms and living on my own for a little while.

Appreciate the advice here!
