Might even be a small condo. 

I’ve talked to an agent and he literally kept trying to stear me into the direction of getting a condo or a townhouse and I’m not 100% sold on going that route being that there is more risk with roommate tension and higher vacancy issues.Thanks

The easiest way for you to start is using your VA and find a duplex up to a fourplex and jump in. 

We bought our first duplex in October, 2017 and I can say without a doubt, it was all due to Bigger Pockets and these forums. 

We bought our first investment in October, a duplex that we are living in one side of.

But now looking deeper into real estate i plan to invest in rental properties specifically condos/apartments in the dontown/gaslamp san diego area.

Our renters pay $1950/month.We currently rent in NYC and recently had an offer accepted on a condo in Brooklyn.

I’m under contract on 3 duplexes on the same street in Mobile, AL.

Take a look at duplexes in the area, is this property selling around the same price or way above the market averages? 

I wish I had heard of househacking before we bought our house :( Now that we know about it, we're trying to find ways on how we can purchase a duplex to househack and rent out our current home.
