@Chirag Mehta For construction costs, you should be around +/- $100 PSF which would include all sitework, utilities, and going vertical with modern finishes.  

I will be graduating with a degree in Digital Marketing and have been applying to jobs for a while with not much luck.

Everyone on here is saying that you can do it, but it's definitely not possible if you don't have a lease in place on the unit you are currently living in or can show you are living somewhere else with a utility bill or rental lease  to demonstrate that you are not intending to live in the subject property.

That means if you could get $6,250/mo, have zero repairs, zero maintenance, zero capex, zero vacancy, provide zero lawn/snow/landscaping, pay zero utilities, and pay zero management.

I understand the first parts where creating a win-win deal is key, I just can't seem to find what happens  When it comes to closing real estate transactions, there are basically three ways to do it: (1) do it yourself (2) utilize real estate attorney or (3) utilize title co.  

Quote from @Zachary Deal: A lot of investors utilize the BRRRR strategy in those markets as there is relatively high rents compared to the value of the properties!

•Explore partnering with wholesalers and real estate agents who bring you off-market deals.5.Continue Building Credit:•As your properties generate income, pay down your credit lines strategically to maintain high credit limits and low utilization.

If you can live for free and only pay utilities AND buy an investment property, that would be ideal in terms of savings and cash flow.If you can't stay and your parents want to make some money on that property, then yes, house hacking would be your best option especially since you don't want the best place in the multi.

Separately metered with tenants paying all utilities.
